    The email address cannot be used for password retrieval or other purposes.

  4. Configure IAM Identity Center details, including the email address and username.

    After an account is created, an IAM Identity Center user is automatically created in RGC. You can use an IAM Identity Center username and password to log in to the management console through the user portal URL, and use the email address to retrieve the password. For details, see Logging In as an IAM Identity Center User and Accessing Resources.
