Objective
This article explains why you may not receive a password reset email after clicking "I forgot my password" on the Vonage API Dashboard login page, and provides steps to resolve it.
Applies To
- Vonage API Dashboard (dashboard.nexmo.com / dashboard.vonage.com)
- All account types (Primary and Secondary users)
- Password reset flow
Symptoms
You may be experiencing this issue if:
- You click "I forgot my password" on the login page but do not receive a reset email.
- You have already checked your spam/junk folder but the email is not there.
- The reset page shows no error — it appears to send successfully, but no email arrives.
- You receive other emails from Vonage (e.g., invoices, notifications) but not the reset email.
Cause
There are several reasons why a password reset email may not be delivered:
| Cause | Description |
|---|---|
| Email suppression / bounce list | If a previous email to your address bounced (e.g., due to a full inbox, temporary server error, or spam filter rejection), our system automatically adds the address to a suppression list. No further emails — including password reset emails — will be sent until the address is removed. |
| Email filtered by corporate mail server | Your company's email security gateway or spam filter may be blocking emails from no-reply@idp.vonage.com. |
| Browser cache / session issue | An outdated browser session may prevent the reset request from being submitted correctly. |
Resolution
Step 1 – Check Spam and Junk Folders
Before anything else:
- Check your Spam, Junk, and Promotions folders.
- Search your inbox for emails from no-reply@idp.vonage.com or support@api.vonage.com.
- If found, mark the email as "Not Spam" to prevent future filtering.
Step 2 – Clear Browser Cache and Try Again
- Clear your browser cache and cookies.
- Open a private/incognito browser window.
- Navigate to https://dashboard.vonage.com/forgot-password.
- Enter your registered email address and submit the request again.
- Wait a few minutes and check your inbox.
Step 3 – Ask Your IT Team to Whitelist Vonage Email Domains
If you are on a corporate network, ask your IT team to whitelist the following sender addresses to ensure Vonage emails are not blocked:
