Password Requirements

To ensure secure login and account protection, Contentstack enforces password requirements aligned with strong password security best practices. Organization owner and admin roles can define password policies that all users must follow within their workspace to help prevent unauthorized access.

Password Policy Guidelines

When setting or updating your password, make sure it adheres to the policy configured by your organization’s admin. This policy may include minimum requirements such as:

• Minimum character length (default 8 characters)
• At least one uppercase letter
• At least one special character (e.g., !, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *)
• At least one numeric character (e.g., 0–9)

If your password (e.g., abcd1234) does not comply, the system prompts you to make necessary adjustments before proceeding.

Best Practices

To further enhance your Contentstack password security, the following best practices are recommended:

• Use a strong and unique password that is not used on other sites
• Change your password regularly
• Avoid predictable patterns or easily guessable words
• Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) using an authenticator app for enhanced security

Note: An organization admin can enforce MFA for all users in the organization. If enforced, users are prompted to set up MFA during their next login.
