How do you create local accounts when SSO is enabled

Currently we are using external authentication SSO to access ServICENow. I am trying to create a local account for Inbound REST API requests. When I got to Administration>Users>Create there is no password field and "Web Service access Only" is unclickable.

Hello @jcestra ,

It looks like there is an ACL on the "web security access only" field. Make sure you have the ADMIN role, as its the only role to make that change. 

I would also check the view you're in some views take out the password field. If not you can always add back the password field to the view you're in.

Hello,

You have to use login.do at the end of the instance url - 

https://<instancename>.service-now.com/login.do
