Request access for ourself with the Identity Service Center

This scenario describes how to use the Identity Service Center Request Access wizard to provide you access, such as role membership, accounts, services, and groups. The wizard provides a unified catalog of access.

The system configuration, such as access catalog information and provisioning policies, affects the users and accesses that can be selected in this flow.

Follow the organization process for any operations or permissions to verify the request is valid.

Use the Request Access wizard to request one or more accesses for ourself from the unified catalog of accesses. The wizard supports batch requests by building up a list of items to request before you go to the next step. For example, you move into a new role, and you require access to multiple systems or applications.
