Account Lockout

For security, Audience Manager temporarily rate-limits repeated failed sign-in attempts. If you exceed the limit, Audience Manager blocks further sign-in attempts for a short period, then automatically allows them again. You do not need to contact an administrator or a Partner Services representative to unlock your account.

Lost/Forgotten Password

Select Forgot password on the sign-in page to reset your password. Audience Manager sends you an email with a link to reset your password. Select the link, then create a new password that meets the password requirements. The link works only once.

New Account Setup

When an administrator creates your account, Audience Manager sends you an email with a link to set your password. Select the link, then create a password that meets the password requirements. You must set your password before you can sign in for the first time.
