How to Force Password Reset for Google Workspace Users in gPanel

Force password resets for users in gPanel for security, compliance, or accounts in transition.

The Bulk Operations Force Password Reset function allows administrators to reset the password for multiple users, groups, organizational units, or roles.

1. In gPanel, go to Tools > Bulk Operations. Then, click Add in the right corner. 

2. Enter the operation name, select Force Password Reset as the type, and enter a description (optional). Then, click Next. 

The image displays a user interface for setting up a bulk operation titled "Reset Passwords." It includes fields for specifying the operation name, selecting the type of operation as "Force Password Reset," and providing a description. The operation description explains that this function allows administrators to compel a specific group of users to reset their account passwords.

3. Select the source users, groups, or orgs for the password reset. As you type in the search field, potential matches will populate in the sources list. Alternatively, by selecting the Browse tab, you can select the sources from  all of the options available in your domain. Note: You can only select one type of source. Meaning you can only select users or groups, not a combination of the two.

Click Next when your selection is complete. 

The image displays a user interface for managing email sources. It includes sections labeled "Sources" and "EMAIL," with options to search, browse, and add or remove selected email addresses. There are checkboxes next to each email for selection, indicating functionality for organizing or modifying entries within an application.

4.  The final step allows you to review your configuration choices. Select whether you'd like to send email notifications on completion. You can add users to notify by entering their name in the text box, selecting the user, and then click the + icon. If you don't want to send email notifications on completion, uncheck this checkbox.

5. After you're done reviewing click Submit to run the operation.
