How to Set Password Policies in Salesforce

  • November 19, 2018

  • Salesforce Admin Tutorial
  • 0

Improve your Salesforce org security with password protection. You can set password history, length, and complexity requirements. You can also specify what to do when a user forgets the password.

You can set different password and login policies based on the type of user.

  • User passwords cannot exceed 16,000 bytes.
  • Logins are limited to 3,600 per hour per user. This limit applies to organizations created after Summer ’08.

Step 1: From Setup, enter Password Policies in the Quick Find box, then select Password Policies.

Step 2 : Customize the password settings.

Step 3 : Customize the forgotten password and locked account assistance information.

  • This setting is not available for Self-Service portals, Customer Portals, or partner portals.

Step 4 : Specify an alternative home page for users with the API Only User permission. After completing user management tasks such as resetting a password, API-only users are redirected to the specified URL rather than to the login page.

Step 5 : Click Save.
