Define the Service Profile

On the Profile tab, you define basic characteristics of the service.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to an account that has service management privileges.

   For example, the default Tenant Administrator role has the appropriate privileges.

2. From the navigation menu, select Services.
3. Click Service Wizard, Create Service.

   The Create Services screen appears.

4. On the Profile tab, enter a name and tag. A tag is a unique identifier for the service.

   Note: Tags can only contain alphanumeric and underscore characters, and cannot start with a number. Once created, a tagname cannot be changed, or reused, even if a service is later deleted.

5. Select Enabled if you want to make the service available to users as soon as you create it.
6. If you want this service to appear in the list of services available for users to request, select Self Subscribing. When Self-Subscribing is enabled, users can request access to this service through the User Console.
7. (Optional) Add one or more categories. Type a category name and click the up arrow to add it to the service.

   Categories add more information to a service. You can use this additional information to facilitate service searches in environments that include a significant number of services.
