Password Reset Functionality

Since 2021.1 release, Itential Automation Gateway (IAG) supports password reset capability.

First Time Login

When you login for the first time, a Change Password feature is enabled that allows the user to enter a new password.

• As a user, you will be asked to reset your password and select and answer security questions.

• A unique email account is required for IAG user accounts.

• The email, security questions and answers set by this functionality will be used as an identifier for username and password recovery of the account.
