# Generate a new temporary password for a team member

> Use this when a staff member is locked out or forgot their password. A new strong temporary password is generated and returned **once** — copy it and share it securely. The member should change it after signing in (Settings → Security).

You cannot reset your own password here — use the normal password change flow instead.

**Permissions:** requires **manage** access to "Team & roles".

**Authentication:** send your organization API key in the `X-API-Key` header.
