Delegated Password Reset

App showcase

Give approved operators a narrowly scoped way to resolve password and account-lockout issues.

The Delegated Password Reset app gives Help Desk teams, branch leads, or other approved operators access to only the users and actions they are authorized to manage. It improves response time without granting broad administrative access.

When to use itDirect link to When to use it

A branch office needs help with routine password resets and account unlocks, but waiting for central IT interrupts daily work. Granting the branch broad directory administration would create unnecessary risk.
