Why this helps
Access troubleshooting often involves switching systems to verify credentials and understand a worker's profile.
- Reduce context switching during access troubleshooting.
- Review returned roles, permissions, locations, and configuration details together.
- Send a clear run report for the person handling the request.

- 5Test with one authorized real example and review the returned profile.
Questions about this workflow
Can this validate a password that is not included in the request?
No. Credentials must be supplied for the login validation action. Do not include credentials in a persistent automation instruction or report.
What profile information can be returned?
The action can return profile information including roles, permissions, locations, and configuration details, depending on the account.
