Overview

 

User profiles are ONLY managed, at account level, in the "User Profiles" sub-module.

The "User Profiles" sub-module is only available in MCL-Mobility Platform accounts with an active/in use OpenID Authentication method ("External System (OpenID Connect)" MUST be the default method - it is defined in the "Account Details" sub-module - "Authentication" tab. See Editing Account Details - Authentication Tab).

 

User profiles can be copied. Operationally speaking, it is another method to create a new user profile and having all the options filled in with the same settings as the original user profile.

This action can be performed in the "User Profile Management" page (see To Duplicate a User Profile in the "User Profile Management" Page below) and in the intended user profile's details page. See To Duplicate a User Profile in the Profile's "...Details" Page.
