Disable a User Self-Care policy

Follow these steps to disable a specific User Self Care policy.

Steps

  1. Replace the mapping rule.

    Replace the first mapping rule in the policy we want to disable with the following snippet . 

       
/*
* Disable this policy.
*/
success.setValue(false);
page.setValue("/authsvc/usc/disabled.html");

    A list of policies and their first mapping rule is shown as follows:

    Policy Map rule name
    Account Create USC_CreateAccount_CollectEmail
    Lost ID USC_LostId_CollectEmail
    Lost Password USC_PasswordReset_CollectEmail

    This snippet will cause the policy to stop and return the template page disabled.html when it is first accessed.

    We can modify the mapping rules using the Mapping Rules page in the management UI at <appliance>/mga/mapping_rules.

  2. Add a new HTML template for the disabled page.

    Add a new HTML template at <locale>/authsvc/usc/disabled.html. The following page is an example of such template. 

      <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
