Password recovery

auth / security · features

Password reset via an email link — two ways: the user requests the link themselves ("forgot password" on the sign-in screen), or an administrator sends it from the user card. From there the path is shared: follow the link from the email, set a new password, terminate all previous sessions.

Dependencies

Both scenarios require configured SMTP — a section in Admin Panel (platform settings). Until SMTP is configured, a fallback applies: no self-service reset, and the administrator issues a temporary password — a modal in Admin Panel, the CLI, or Owner.
The mechanic is in workzone: "forgot password" reset · administrator reset · password policy · brute-force defense boundary.
