Identity Manager Self-Service Tasks

Self-Service Tasks › Identity Manager Self-Service Tasks

Self-service tasks are Identity Manager tasks that users can use to manage their own profiles. These tasks are divided into two types:

Public tasks--Tasks that users can access without providing login credentials. Examples of public tasks are self-registration, forgotten password, and forgotten user ID tasks.
Protected tasks--Tasks for which users provide valid credentials. Examples include tasks for changing passwords or profile information. To gain access to these tasks, users must be given a role, such as the Self Manager role.

The following table lists the default self-service tasks, which are available when Identity Manager is installed.
