Admin Guide: How Can I Reset a Non-Microsoft User's Password or Username?

Learn how to update a non-Microsoft user's username or reset their password in Teamflect.

Written by Sue

Teamflect allows administrators to manage non-Microsoft users who access Teamflect using a username or a non-Microsoft email address and password.
​

If a user forgets their password or needs to change their username, you can manage these details directly from the Teamflect Admin Center.

How to Reset a Non-Microsoft User's Password or Change Their Username

Follow these steps to manage a non-Microsoft user's login credentials:

  1. Go to the Teamflect Admin Center.

  2. Select Users and go to Active Users.
    ​

  3. Find the user whose credentials you want to update and select Details next to their name.
    ​

  4. Open the Account Information tab.
    ​

  5. From this tab, you can:

    • Change the username: Update the user's username as needed.
      ​

    • Reset the password: Select Reset Password to generate a new temporary password.
      ​

  6. Confirm your action when prompted.
    ​

How Is the New Password Shared?

After you confirm the password reset, the new temporary password is provided based on the user's account information:

  • If the user has an email address associated with their account: The temporary password is sent directly to the user's email address.

  • If the user does not have an email address associated with their account: The temporary password is displayed to the administrator. You can then share it with the user directly.
    ​

Note: The generated password is temporary and can only be used for the initial sign-in after the reset. When the user signs in with this password, Teamflect will prompt them to create a new password.

How Can the User Sign In After a Password Reset?

Once the user receives their temporary password, they can access Teamflect by following these steps:

  1. Select Sign in here under the message asking whether they have an existing Teamflect account with a username or non-Microsoft email.
    ​

  2. Enter their Teamflect username or email address and the temporary password.

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to create a new password.
