Hi @VibhaJ ,

You can check and reset your PDI login details from the ServiceNow Developer Portal.

Please log in with your ServiceNow Developer account here:

https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/home

Once logged in, go to your profile or instance section and open the PDI assigned to your account. There you can check the instance details and reset/manage the admin password.

For most PDIs, the username will be:

admin

Use the password available or generated from the Developer Portal instance details page.

Also, please do not select Reset and Wipe Instance unless you want to rebuild the instance from scratch, because it may remove your existing PDI data and configurations.

For a forgotten ServiceNow PDI password, the solution is straightforward. Log into the Developer Portal at developer.servicenow.com with your ServiceNow account, navigate to your instance details, and you can view or reset the admin credentials there. The username is almost always "admin" by default. Tejaswini's warning about avoiding Reset and Wipe is important since that removes all your existing configurations. For technology companies tracking which marketing channels bring the most qualified developer and enterprise prospects, Phonexa helps attribute those inbound inquiries accurately.
