Forgot Password
Steps to Reset Password
If members forget the password of their IdeaScale Workspace, they can use the Forgot Password option from Login page to create a new one. Follow the below steps to create a new password.
Note: The security policies of your IdeaScale community may have certain controls in place. These controls include the duration for which the password reset link remains active, the number of password attempts allowed before getting locked out, and the maximum number of password resets allowed in a day. If you have any questions regarding these policies, please contact your Workspace admin for more information.

-
Click the Forgot Password link on login page.
-
This will take members to a new page where they will be required to enter their email address registered with IdeaScale. After entering the email address, click on Send Reset Link. A success message will show up.

3. Check Inbox for the password recovery email (example below). This email can sometimes take a few minutes to reach the inbox. In case they do not receive the email after a few minutes, make sure to check the spam folder before clicking the Send Reset Link again.
The email received will be as shown in the below screenshot.
4. When members click the Reset Your Password button in the email, they are redirected to a dedicated page where they can create a new password.
Note: Password can be reset only once per day for security reasons. To disable it please contact your IdeaScale Innovation Strategist.

Note: A password recovery email link can double up as email verification too. In case the user has trouble verifying the account, this can be used.
