Hi @rubesh_u ,

 

It is as per best practice across every online portal, the user has to login with the new credential after password reset is done. Actually setting password(while password reset) and validating password (while login) are completely two different events.

When you reset password system validates your old password and update that with the new one after. However, when you login system just validate the password you entered with the one system has in database against your username.

I don't think this is feasible as per the best security practice across any online portal.
