Customize the Select Me option

We can customize the Select Me option in Identity Service Center so that the current logged in user gets selected automatically.

This procedure describes how to customize the Select Me option to be enabled automatically in the Request Access flow and the Edit and Delete Access flow scenarios. With this customization, we are not required to select a logged in user on the Home page of the Identity Service Center. The current logged in user is automatically selected.
