Identifying Yourself to My webMethods
Your identification information is listed on the User Information and User Profile tabs of your profile.
*User Information tab. Your name and e-mail address are on the User Information tab.
Note:
You can only update the fields on the User Information tab if your user account is defined in My webMethods, that is, the “System” directory service. If your user account is defined in an external directory management system, for example LDAP, My webMethods obtains values from the external directory management system for these fields.
