# How to reset a Member’s two-factor authentication (2FA)

To simplify account management and enhance security, a **Reset 2FA** button has been introduced on the Member’s page of the Control Panel. This feature allows organization Owners to reset two-factor authentication (2FA) and log the member out of all devices instantly.

Note

If you are a member who has lost access to your 2FA login, please contact your organization administrator.

## Steps to reset 2FA for a Member

To use this feature, the member must have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled. If 2FA is disabled, the reset button will not be displayed. Additionally, only users with the **Owner**, **Impersonated Owner**, **Delegated Administrator**, or **Administrator** role have permission to reset 2FA.

1. Log in to the **Control Panel**
2. Navigate to the **Organization** tab on the left side and select **Members**.
3. In the members list, locate the member whose 2FA you want to reset and click on them.
4. Select the **2FA** tab
5. On the member’s page, click the **Reset 2FA** button.
6. A confirmation prompt will appear to verify the action.
7. Click **Confirm** to proceed.

This resets 2FA for the selected member, automatically logging them out from all devices to ensure a secure reset process.

This feature offers a fast and secure way to resolve access issues while maintaining control over member accounts.
