Resetting Your Password

If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it using your email address.

Steps

1. Request a Reset

  1. Go to the login page
  2. Click Forgot Password
  3. Enter the email address associated with your account
  4. Click Send Reset Link

You will see a confirmation message regardless of whether the email exists in the system (this is a security measure to prevent account enumeration).

2. Check Your Email

Look for an email from ApprovIQ with the subject "Reset Your Password" (or similar):

  • The email contains a reset link
  • The link is valid for 24 hours
  • The link can only be used once

If you do not see the email:

  • Check your spam/junk folder
  • Ensure you entered the correct email address
  • Wait a few minutes — emails are processed asynchronously

3. Set a New Password

  1. Click the reset link in the email
  2. Enter your new password
  3. Click Reset Password

4. Sign In

After resetting your password:

  • All existing sessions are invalidated (you will be signed out everywhere)
  • Sign in with your email and new password
