Ask: When creating a new Devolutions Account, a prompt will appear asking to send a temporary password by email.
Send: When creating a new Devolutions Account, users will receive their temporary passwords by email.

Password management
The Password management section of the System settings lets administrators enable and configure forbidden password validation for the Devolutions Cloud workspace.
Forbidden password check
A verification of the password against all configured forbidden password rules is done if enabled. If disabled, no forbidden password validation is applied. Validation is enforced in the web client, as well as in Remote Desktop Manager and Devolutions Password Manager when connected to this workspace.
Forbidden password
Forbidden passwords let administrators build a list of rules that block specific passwords from being used in the Devolutions Cloud workspace. Each rule has its own name and verification mode, and rules can be added, edited, or removed independently.
Setting
Description
Name
Give the rule a name to identify it in the list.
Case sensitive
Make the rule's verification mode case sensitive.
Verification mode
Select the verification mode for the rule between: Contains: the password will be forbidden if it contains the rule's forbidden password. Exact match: the password will be forbidden if it matches the rule's forbidden password.
Import
Import a list of passwords from your computer, one password per line. Imports are limited to 1 MB and 1,000 passwords per rule. Passwords that don't match the accepted format are skipped and reported in a warning listing the non-conforming entries, which can be copied to the clipboard; the warning also links to the Entry security analyzer report, pre-filtered to the affected entries.
Export
Export the forbidden password list as a JSON file.
