The following are the available Password Manager Self-Service workflows:

All available workflows are preconfigured and ready to use.
The Self-Service and the workflows correspond to the tasks on the Self-Service Site. If you enable a self-service workflow, the corresponding task will be available to users on the Self-Service Site.
The Self-Service workflows provide the ability to combine different authentication options in a single workflow. For example, you can configure the authentication activities so that all secret questions are displayed on a single page, or only one secret question is displayed at a time. You can combine different authentication options such as authentication with Questions and Answers profile, Defender, and phone authentication in a single workflow.
