Stop Zendesk Password Reset Notifications

Find out how to prevent Zendesk from sending password reset notifications after SSO password changes.

How can I stop Zendesk from sending password reset notifications after SSO password changes?

To stop Zendesk from sending password reset notifications after SSO password changes, you need to adjust your SAML settings. The notifications occur because the SAML provider is set to sync passwords, which updates the Zendesk password and triggers an email.

To resolve this, disable the password syncing option in your SAML provisioning settings. This will prevent the native Zendesk password from being updated when the SSO password changes. Additionally, you can suppress email notifications by changing settings in the Admin Center, but only if all users use SSO to sign in. For more information, refer to the originalZendesk help article.
