# Resetting Credentials

> Reset your password or OTP, or reset credentials for other users as an Account Admin

Cloud.Red allows any user to reset their own password, and Account Admins can additionally reset the password or OTP (One-Time Password / MFA) of any user in the account.

## Navigating to My Account

Select your profile in the upper-right hand navigation and choose "My Account", then select the "Settings" tab.

## Resetting User Credentials (Account Admins)

Account Admins will see an "Admin: Reset User Credentials" section. Search for and select a user by name or email — you can also select yourself.

For an OTP reset, the link opens the Mobile Authenticator Setup page. Scan the QR code with an authenticator app (FreeOTP, Microsoft Authenticator, or Google Authenticator), then enter the one-time code and a device name to finish the setup.
