__TOC__This type of #REDIRECT [[Workflow]] step is used to activate a contact as a [[User|user]] and send the credentials in order to log in. This is particularly useful if you are doing project type work and only wish to activate a [[User|user]] as part of a project. The recipients selected in the Routing section below will be [[Enabling User Access|activated as users]]. In addition, if an email and/or quick message is selected to be sent in the Message Template, that email and/or quick message will be sent as well to the selected recipient(s). The [[User Email Templates]] set up for new user activations in [[Global Settings]] are not sent for users activated by a workflow. Therefore, if you wish the users activated by this Workflow Task to receive email notification including their password, the email message should be configured on this page.
