Resetting a database password is sometimes necessary for security or access recovery. With Clouddley Triggr, the process is simple and secure. This article walks you through the steps to reset your database password.

Steps to Reset a Database Password

For this, we will be resetting the password of a PostgreSQL database user.

1

Navigate to Triggr Database dashboard and Click on the database.

2

In the Users tab, navigate to the Actions column, click the three-dot menu, and select Reset Database.

3

Input the database name and click on Reset Password.

Once you see this popup, you've successfully reset your Database password.

Considerations After Resetting the password

Once the password reset is successful, existing active connections will remain unaffected. However, users must log in again with the new password for any new sessions. To ensure a smooth transition and maintain security, consider the following:

  • Update Stored Credentials: To avoid connection issues, update applications and services using the database with the new password.

  • Verify Access: To confirm if the update was successful, test the new credentials by logging in.

  • Monitor for Unauthorized Access: Check database logs for any failed login attempts, as old credentials may still be in use.

Conclusion

Resetting a database password is a straightforward process on Clouddley Triggr, ensuring secure access without disrupting active connections. You can maintain smooth database operations by updating credentials in connected applications, verifying access, and following security best practices.
