Defining a custom task
As an administrator, you might want to create a custom task for your business or organization. You must define these custom tasks before you can assign them to a view.
About this task
You can select the Start task in new window check box to enable the user to view the custom task in a new browser window. By default, this check box is not selected. If you create a custom task without selecting this check box, when the user starts the task in the Privileged Identity Manager Service Center, it is started in the inline frame, or iframe, of the browser window that contains the Privileged Identity Manager Service Center. However, if you select the check box, when the user starts the task, it is started in a new browser window or tab, depending on the configuration of the browser.
If you create a custom task that specifies a URL corresponding to the Administrative console, you must select this check box.
- If the web application cannot run custom tasks in a browser iframe, that is, inline frame, you must select the Start task in new window check box.
- You can disable headers on some applications for better integration. For example, you might want to create a custom task in the Privileged Identity Manager Service Center for the Self-service console. To turn off headers so that it integrates better with the Privileged Identity Manager Service Center, see "Customizing website layout" in the IBM Security Identity Manager product documentation
