Password Reset and Password Expiry for managed accounts

Nina Eickeler

Hello, 

I have some questions:

1. How does the password reset looks like for managed accounts when the user has set up the two factor authentication? Can the users reset their password when it is a managed account? And if the user has set up the two factor authentication will it be asked for when during password reset? 

2. When password expiration is set up for managed accounts, can the user use his current password again or does Atlassian remember the last password and tell the user that he has to set a different password? Or is there even a password chronicle that Atlassian remembers e.g. the last three passwords?

Thank you for your help to answer these questions.

@Nina Eickeler If you are using managed accounts the account management and settings would be configured by your identity provider.  Both answers to one and two would be answered by how the identity provider you have chosen handles resets and expirations.
