Recovering access & resetting passwords
Recover a local account or troubleshoot a workspace setup link without changing the wrong account.
All users3 min read
Local Metis passwords and company SSO passwords are managed differently. Identify which sign-in method you use before requesting a reset.
Before you start
- Your correct workspace address.
- The username or email associated with your account.
For a local Metis account
- 1Contact your workspace Super Admin and provide your username and workspace name.
- 2The Super Admin can find your account under Admin → Users and use Reset password.
- 3Return to your workspace sign-in page and use the new password provided through your organization's secure process.
Using a first-admin setup link
- 1Open the latest setup or password link provided for your workspace.
- 2Confirm the link opens the intended workspace before choosing a password.
- 3After setting the password, sign in at that workspace's address with the account details provided.
For company SSO
Reset your password through your company's identity provider. Changing a local Metis password does not change your Okta password or restore a disabled company account.
Troubleshooting
The link opens the wrong workspace
Stop before setting a password. Ask your administrator for a fresh link for the intended workspace.
The new password still does not work
Verify the workspace and local username. A disabled workspace must be re-enabled by an authorized administrator before normal sign-in can resume.
