# Change your email or password

Change your name, login email or password, or reset a forgotten password.

Your name, email and password are on [Account Settings](https://pipefile.com/dashboard/settings/account).

## Change your name or email

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Edit Basic Information

Go to [Account → Basic Information](https://pipefile.com/dashboard/settings/account#basic-information) and click **Edit**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Update and save

Change **Name** or **Email Address** and click **Save**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Confirm the new address

If you changed your email, we send a confirmation link to the new address. Click it. Until you do, keep logging in with your old address.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

After you confirm, log in with the new address. Your password doesn't change.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you signed up with Google and never set a password, Pipefile asks you to set one before you can change your email. Use [Forgot your password?](https://pipefile.com/password/reset) to set it, then change your email.
{% endhint %}

A team admin can also change a member's name or login email with **Update user** on the [Team → Users](https://pipefile.com/dashboard/settings/team#users) list. The member still has to confirm the new address.

## Change your password

Go to [Account → Password](https://pipefile.com/dashboard/settings/account#password), click **Change password**, enter your **New password** twice and click **Save**.

Passwords must be at least 8 characters, can't be all numbers, and can't be a common password or too close to your name or email.

## Forgot your password

1. On the login page, click **Forgot your password?** (or go to [pipefile.com/password/reset](https://pipefile.com/password/reset)).
2. Enter your **Email Address** and click **Reset Password**.
3. Open the email and follow the link to choose a new password.

If the page says **This password reset link is expired**, request a new one. Can't find the email? See [Emails not arriving](/troubleshooting/emails-not-arriving.md).

{% hint style="warning" %}
If your team logs in with [single sign-on](/team-and-account/single-sign-on.md), your password is managed by your company's identity provider. Contact your IT team instead.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://support.pipefile.com/team-and-account/email-and-password.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
