Introduction
This guide will walk you through approving a member’s Account recovery. This action allows members to regain access to their NordPass account.
Here's what to do
-
Log in to the NordPass Admin Panel as the organization Owner and select the "Members" button on the left.
Note: This action is not available for users with the Admin role.
- Select the “Recoveries” tab.
- Locate the member who requested to regain access to their NordPass account. You will see the information about which decryption method the user has and is requesting account recovery with:
- Click on the "Approve" button.
- If a user requests account recovery with a new app or browser, verify the app or browser and device information and select the "Continue" button.
- No matter which account recovery method is used, a 4-digit code will be displayed; you must verify that this code matches the one held by the organization member to confirm the user's identity
- When the account recovery is approved, the user will be notified that they can now access their vault with the new Master Password, or the linked app or browser.
Note: When denied, the account recovery request is deleted. The user will be notified that the request was not approved. A new request can be sent at any time.
Additional tips
- If no action is taken within 5 days, the account recovery request will expire, and the user will be notified via email.
- If a user had a Recovery Code saved, it becomes invalid after account recovery. The user can get a new Recovery Code from the NordPass app on the device where recovery started.
