Create, Change, or Reset Password

Orchestrator > Orchestrator Server > Users & Authentication > Change Password

The Change Password menu is only applicable if you are logged in as a local user. If so, use the Create Password dialog box to create or change your password.

NOTE: If you are logged in through an identify provider via OAuth or SAML, the change password feature is not applicable.

To reset your password, see Reset Password. Both local and OaaS users can reset their passwords.
