Hi @vivek 

Referring to https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Core-questions/Reset-Login-count-in-Jira/qaq-p/365053

It seems the only way to do this is with a direct DB modification.

You could use script runner to create a custom rest endpoint which could then trigger this 

• Creating REST endpoint: https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/5.4.47/jira/rest-endpoints.html
• Making queries: https://scriptrunner.adaptavist.com/latest/jira/recipes/misc/connecting-to-databases.html

I am not sure I recommend this as an option as direct DB modifications to a production instance are always risky.
