Admin Resetting a User Password for a User

Sometimes users may get locked out of their account and need an admin to reset it for them. If your organization has enabled password recovery with a recovery email , and the user has a verified recovery email, the user will receive a password reset link sent to the recovery email. The user would click the password reset link from the recovery email, enter a new password, and verify their identity using MFA.

To reset a user password for a user:

  1. Log in to the .
  2. Go to USER MANAGEMENT > Users.
  3. Select the user whose password needs to be reset.
  4. From the Details tab, scroll to User Security Settings and Permissions.
    • From this section, you can enter a Password Recovery Email for the user and a temporary password for the user.
    • Click Reset Password to set a new, temporary password for the user.
  5. After making the updates, click Save User.

Note:

TOTP attempts are not unlimited. Allowed number of user attempts is set by the IT Admin. Admin attempts are limited to five. If settings are selected, that will count toward password or MFA attempts.

Adding a Password Recovery Email Address

Please add a personal email address that is different from your org email so that if you ever get locked out of your account, a recovery email will be sent to your personal email address, as well as your org email address. This will help you if for some reason you can't access your org email account.

To add a recovery email as a user:

  1. Log in to the .
  2. Go to Profile > Recovery Email.
  3. Under Recovery Email, enter a personal email address that is different from your org email address.
  4. Click Save. An email is sent to the email address that you just provided for verification.
  5. Within the specified time, click Verify Now! in the email that was sent to your personal recovery email address. If you don't verify within the specified time, you'll need to enter the email address again in the User Portal.
  6. The user will be directed to the User Portal login page. Upon successful login, a confirmation email is sent stating that the user's recovery email address has been verified.

To add a recovery email as an admin:

  1. Log in to the .
  2. Go to Settings > Organization Profile > User Portal Settings.
  3. Go to Settings > Security > Password Recovery Email.
  4. Click the Enable Password Recovery Email for Users checkbox.
  5. Click save changes.
  6. The Password Recovery Email address will display under User Security Settings and Permissions.
    • Users can’t use the feature until the Admin Portal settings are turned on.

Note:

When the verification email is sent, the user will have four hours to validate their alternate email address. If they don’t validate by then, the email will need to be resent.

When they validate it, a green checkmark icon displays by their Password Recovery Email address under User Security Settings and Permissions. If you hover over the checkmark with your cursor, a timestamp displays the date and time that it was verified.

Troubleshooting

Password Reset failed because there are no available Multi-Factor Authentication methods. Please reach out to your IT Admin to reset your password.

When a user resets their password from the User Portal login and receives this message, it is because the admin has enforced MFA for the User Portal and the user has not yet enrolled in MFA. An admin will need to reset the end user password.

To prevent these types of password lockouts, you can enable your users to reset their password when MFA is enforced for the User Portal but they have not yet enrolled. See Manage Password and Security Settings.
