Overview of Built-in Self-Service Activities

Overview of Built-in Legacy Self-Service and Password Manager Self-Service site Activities

The Password Manager Self-Service site has all functionality similar to the Legacy Self-Service site with a new and improved user interface. The Password Manager Self-Service site can co-exist along with the already existing Self-Service site and you can select to revert anytime to the Legacy Self-Service site.

All built-in activities available in the self-service workflows fall into the following categories: authentication, actions, and notifications.

Authentication activities are activities that provide different authentication options, for example authentication with password or Questions and Answers profiles, or phone-based authentication.

The actions category includes activities that are core components of the built-in self-service workflows, for example Unlock Account, Edit Q&A Profile, and other activities.

Notification activities are activities that you can use to configure email notifications for users and administrators, and specify conditions under which the notifications should be sent.

The following sections describe the built-in self-service activities and provide information about the settings specific to each activity.

Authentication Activities

This section describes built-in activities that provide different authentication options.

Display CAPTCHA

Use this activity to display a CAPTCHA image on the Self-Service site and require users to enter the displayed characters before beginning a workflow. This feature provides enhanced protection against automated attacks.

This activity has the following settings:

  • Number of characters. Specify the number of characters that will be displayed on a CAPTCHA image.
  • Noise level. Select the noise level for a CAPTCHA image. The higher the level the more difficult it will be to read the characters.

Display reCAPTCHA

Use this activity to display a reCAPTCHA image on the Self-Service site and require users to enter the displayed characters before beginning a workflow. This feature provides enhanced protection against automated attacks.

reCAPTCHA is a free CAPTCHA service provided by Google.

To start using reCAPTCHA you need to sign up and get reCAPTCHA keys on the following Web site: http://www.google.com/recaptcha.

When getting the keys, provide the DNS name of the domain where Password Manager Self-Service sites are installed. If the Self-Service sites are installed in different domains, select the Enable this key on all domains check box to create a global key.

To learn more about using and configuring reCAPTCHA, go to http://www.google.com/recaptcha/learnmore.

This activity has the following settings:

  • Public key. Specify the public key you received when configuring reCAPTCHA.
  • Private key. Specify the private key you received when configuring reCAPTCHA.
  • Theme. Select a color theme for the reCAPTCHA widget.
