Okta - Reset an existing user's forgotten password action
This action resets an existing user’s forgotten password and optionally sends them the one-time token (OTT) link via email. Please note that the user must be in ACTIVE state and will be required to validate their security question's answer when visiting the reset link. User’s state will still remain ACTIVE in this case. Requires Organization Administrator or Super Administrator roles to use this action.
