Why can't I log into my account?
Resolve login issues including forgotten passwords, SSO errors, and locked accounts. Step-by-step troubleshooting guide.
Overview
Login issues are usually caused by one of three things: an incorrect password, a browser or cache conflict, or an SSO configuration problem if your organization uses single sign-on. This article walks through each scenario in order of likelihood.
Symptoms
- You enter your email and password but receive an 'Invalid credentials' error
- The login page reloads without showing an error message
- You're redirected to your SSO provider but see an access denied message
- Your account appears locked or suspended
- You receive a 'Too many login attempts' message
Most Common Causes
The majority of login failures are caused by an incorrect or expired password, a browser storing outdated cached credentials, or — for organization users — an SSO email mismatch between your identity provider and your platform account.
Solutions
Solution 1: Reset Your Password (Most Common Fix)
- Click Forgot Password on the login page.
- Enter your registered email address and click Send Reset Link.
- Check your inbox (and spam folder) for an email from noreply@yourplatform.com.
- Click the reset link within 30 minutes — links expire after this period.
- Set a new password and try logging in again.
Solution 2: Clear Browser Cache and Cookies
- In Chrome, press Ctrl+Shift+Delete (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+Delete (Mac).
- Select 'Cookies and other site data' and 'Cached images and files'.
- Set the time range to 'All time' and click Clear data.
- Close and reopen your browser, then attempt to log in again.
📌 Note: This solution resolves the majority of 'page reload with no error' login issues.
Solution 3: Check SSO Configuration (organization Users Only)
If your organization uses SSO and you're seeing an 'Access Denied' message from your identity provider:
- Confirm your IT Admin has assigned you to the application in your identity provider (Okta, Azure AD, etc.).
- Verify the email address in your identity provider exactly matches your platform account email.
- Ask your IT Admin to check the SSO logs in the platform's organization Settings for specific error codes.
