## Verified facts

Checked against Atlassian's own documentation on 2026-08-19. Fields absent below are ones Atlassian does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://id.atlassian.com/login/resetpassword |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a link |

## Steps

1. **Open Atlassian's password reset page** at https://id.atlassian.com/login/resetpassword. This is where the "Forgot password?" link on the sign-in screen leads.
2. **Enter the email address on the account.** If you are not sure which address that is, search your inboxes for mail from atlassian.com; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Open the reset email and follow its link.** Links are single-use and short-lived; if nothing arrives in a few minutes, check spam and confirm the address.
4. **Choose a strong new password.** 16+ random characters, and never one used anywhere else.
5. **Store it somewhere sealed**: a password manager or encrypted vault, not a note and not a screenshot.

## Common problems

- **Managed accounts with SSO cannot use password reset.** If your account is managed – for example, your organization uses Google or Microsoft for sign-on – password reset links may not work. "You'll need to reset the account password for your single sign-on provider instead." (https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/password-reset-issues/)
- **Recovery email must be from existing account email.** Users must enter the correct email address associated with their Atlassian account when requesting a password reset. The reset fails if the email does not belong to an existing account. (https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/password-reset-issues/)
- **Recovery emails may be blocked or delayed.** Password reset emails are sent from @id.atlassian.com addresses. If not received within 10 minutes, check spam folders and verify the domain is not being blocked by the email administrator.

## Doing it automatically

Repass connects to Gmail once, finds the accounts you have, and runs this flow for you in your own browser. Passwords are generated on your device and encrypted before they are stored; Repass also holds a key that can unwrap the vault, so signing in is enough to open it. It pauses and hands over when a site asks for a CAPTCHA or a code.
