11.2 Respond to Application Messages

When building a SecureLogin application definition for an application, it is important to respond to any messages that the application generates. Actions for each of these messages should be included in the application definition to ensure SecureLogin responds appropriately.

This section has the following information:

After a password has been changed successfully, in many application logins, a Change Successful message appears. Using the Add Application Wizard, you can change your application definition to respond to this event by clearing the application message and updating your SecureLogin stored credentials.

NOTE:Ensure that the Change Successful message is displayed so that the Add Application Wizard can identify it.
