To complete the exercises, access your 4me instance at 4me-demo.com by entering the name and password of the instance. Once you have accessed your instance, select the 4me account of Widget North America FM.

If you do not yet have access to a 4me instance, you can request one by going to the 4me website.

Now go ahead and log in as Hank Williams.
Hank Williams has the Workflow Manager role of the ‘Widget North America, FM’ account, which allows you to add and modify Automation Rules as you work your way through the exercises.

Hank Williams also has the Account Administrator role, which you will use to check the UI extensions.

Hank’s email address is: hank.williams@widget.com
His 4me password is: 4me
All passwords in your training instance have been set to 4me. For training purposes we use easy to remember passwords, since you will switch users with  different roles quite often during the exercises. The passwords do not reflect the strict password requirements 4me has for its own employees, nor the requirements your organization will set in the 4me system for you.
Make sure you verify the settings of your training instance when it has been used by someone else. Go to the Settings console (5th icon in the toolbar). In the left pane at the bottom you will find the menu options 'Instance Options' and 'Instance Reset'. Click on 'Instance Options' to enter your email address in the Forwarding email address field. Click on the 'Instance Reset' menu option to reinitialize the data in your demo instance.
