Password Reset

🔑 Password Reset

GermainUX allows users who authenticate with a GermainUX username and password to securely reset a forgotten password from the login page.

This process applies to database-managed GermainUX users. If your organization uses LDAP, Active Directory, OAuth, or another identity provider, reset your password through that provider.
