Overview: Creating an initial profile

Typically, when you create your initial profile, you will want to:

  • Set general properties for the profile in the Profile Properties screen
  • Define URLs to be included in the profile
  • Set one of the URLs to be a login page
  • Configure a post-login URL (in certain situations)

Therefore, the instructions for creating an initial profile are presented according to these four stages.
