eIAM selfadminPortal "MyAccount"

The functionalities of the eIAM selfadminPortal "MyAccount" are part of CH-LOGIN.

Currently, the new MyAccount is not called by the application for existing integrations. The function is also not available for the existing Specialist community IdPs.

The eIAM selfadminPortal "MyAccount" is an integral part of the eIAM service. The portal can be accessed directly, detached from specialist applications.

Self-administration with CH login authentication procedure

If the user has used the CH-LOGIN IdP to log in to the application, the user has the option to maintain their user data and credentials in self-administration. If the application offers the CH-LOGIN IdP, it MUST also offer the user the option to access the self-administration so that the user can change their password or mutate their details.
