Self-Service Tasks

Self-service tasks are actions that users can take, typically through the User Console, to manage their own profiles. User accounts are configured by default to grant the user access to certain self-service tasks, such as changing their password and profile information. A system administrator with appropriate privileges can modify which self-service tasks are granted to a user by default.

Self-service 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.

The following table lists the default self-service tasks.
