Replacement messages

The replacement messages list lets you view and customize replacement messages, and manage images.

Go to Authentication > Self-service Portal > Replacement Messages to view the replacement message list.

The replacement messages are divided into seven categories: Account, Authentication, Device Certificate Enrollment, Password Reset, User Registration, SAML SP (FSSO), and System.

To view and customize SAML IdP replacement messages, go to Authentication > SAML IdP > Replacement Messages.

The two pre-authentication replacement messages under Authentication are only available after pre-authentication has been enabled under System > Administration > System Access.

Selecting a specific message will display the text and HTML or plain text of the message in the lower half of the content pane.

Selecting Toggle Tag List will display a table of the tags used for that message atop the message’s HTML or plain text box.

To edit a replacement message:

1. Select a message in the replacement message list.
2. Edit the plain text or HTML code in the lower right pane, or select Open in new window to edit the message in a new browser window.

To insert custom images into the replacement message, see Manage Images.

3. When you are finished editing the message, select Save to save your changes.
4. If you have made an error when editing the message, select Restore Default to restore the message to its default value.
