Reset User Password And Get Reset Url triggers an Okta password reset for a specified Okta user and returns a one-time reset URL. This is useful for account recovery and forgot password workflows where a Flow needs to generate a reset link and deliver it through a custom channel (for example, a service desk process, internal portal, or a custom email/SMS notification flow).

A common pattern is to retrieve or validate the target user first (for example, with Get User By Id), generate the reset URL with this step, and then send the URL using a communication step (for example, Send Email) or display it in an internal admin form. Because the reset URL provides direct access to a password reset experience, treat it as sensitive data and distribute it only through secure, intended channels.

Prerequisites 

This step requires the Okta module to be installed before it will be available in the toolbox.
