Overview -

Lost password and username recovery

---

We will discuss how to use MongoDB to retrieve your username and password if you are unable to login, your controller is being managed by someone who did not originally install the system, or you have lost or forgotten your login credentials for the UniFi Controller. This method will not reset your network.
Note: These steps must be completed on the same computer that the UniFi Controller is installed to. If you no longer have access to that computer, and you do not have a backup of your UniFi Controller, you'll need to install the UniFi Controller to a new machine, reset and readopt your UAPs, and reconfigure your network.
