Reset User Security Tool

If a user shares their personal link, you can invalidate it by resetting their security.

  • With the Reset User Security Tool, you can reset the User and Contact GUIDs on specific records.
    Note: A GUID is a globally unique identifier that is specific to each record.
  • This tool makes any previously saved auto-logins invalid to protect users if someone shares their personalized link.
  • You can launch the tool from User or Contacts pages using a selection of records or an open record.
  • The Audit Log for both the user and contact records show updates made by the API on behalf of the user.
Note: To use this tool, you must have access through your security role. SPoCs can grant user access to this tool.

Reset User Security

  1. In the navigation menu, click Contacts.
  2. Open the record of the contact whose security you want to reset.
  3. From the Tools menu, select Reset User Security.
  4. Click Reset.
  5. Close the tool.

The User GUID and Contact GUID fields are reset, and any auto-login is invalidated. If you reset your own security, you'll need to close your browser and log in to MinistryPlatform before you attempt any other actions.
