| Customize personal information and password management |
If you provide external applications where users manage their personal information and passwords, you can add redirect links in this section. |
| Configure optional user account fields | End users can enter a secondary address for password reset and account creation notices. When you enable this feature, Active Directory-sourced users are prompted to provide their secondary email the next time they sign in. |
| Configure Okta user communication | Edit this section if you don't want to receive Okta communication requesting user experience feedback. Select Opt out of Okta User Communication for this Org. |

| Customize a sign-out page |

|
| Recently used applications | Allow users to choose whether the Okta End-User Dashboard displays their recently used apps in a separate section. |
