Lesson: 02 | How many ways can you reset a user's password in Salesforce?

Notes

1. User-Initiated Reset

• The user can click the "Forgot Your Password?" link on the Salesforce login page.
• An email with a password reset link will be sent to the user's registered email address.

2. Admin-Initiated Reset

• A Salesforce Administrator can reset a user's password through the Setup menu:
  • Go to Setup → Users → Locate the user → Click Reset Password.
• This sends a password reset email to the user.

3. Using Apex Code

• An administrator or developer can reset a user's password programmatically using Apex.

User userRecord = [SELECT Id FROM User WHERE Email = 'user@example.com' LIMIT 1];
System.resetPassword(userRecord.Id);
