SNOW-CSA Self-Service and Automation Practice Question
A company wants to allow users to reset their own passwords through the portal. Which feature should be enabled?
⚠ Common exam trap
ServiceNow often tests the distinction between authentication mechanisms (SSO, LDAP) and self-service features (Password Reset), leading candidates to confuse integration methods with the actual user-facing capability to reset passwords.

✓
Password Reset
The Password Reset feature in ServiceNow allows users to reset their own passwords through the portal without requiring administrator intervention.
