Add User Smart Service

The Add User Node allows you to create new users on the system while executing your process application. A temporary password will be automatically generated and sent to the email address provided. The temporary password never expires and can only be used once. The user is forced to change the password when they log in for the first time.

Note that the password parameter has been deprecated in favor of using auto-generated passwords. Existing processes which use the password parameter will continue to be supported.

Permissions Needed

Only System Administrators can run this smart service.
