## FAQs

**What are Airtable’s password requirements?**

Airtable passwords must be at least 8 characters long.

**I created and signed into my Airtable account using my Google account’s email address and password. How can I update the password?**

Follow the instructions included in [Updating your password section](/docs/updating-your-airtable-password#updating-your-password). And after adding a new password, log out of your Airtable account and [revoke Airtable access](https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3466521?hl=en) from your Google account.

**What actions should I take before updating the email domain associated with my Airtable account?**

If you created and signed into your Airtable account using Google but never created a password—different from your Google password—you need to [add a new password](/docs/updating-your-airtable-password#adding-a-password-for-the-first-time) before updating the email domain associated with your Airtable account.

**I lost access to my email account and can't reset my Airtable password. How can I get back into my Airtable account?**

- If you're unable to access your Airtable account on airtable.com, check if you are currently signed into the Airtable macOS, Windows, iOS, or Android app. If so, you can use that device to share your files with another, new account.
- Ask any existing collaborators to share workspaces and bases with your new email address.
- Contact your email service provider for possible support accessing your old email account.
- If your organization is on a Business or Enterprise Scale plan, then see if someone at your organization with admin permissions can assist with modifying your account’s email address in admin panel. In the [Users tab](/docs/users-airtable-enterprise-admin-panel), there is an option to edit individual user’s email addresses.

> [!CAUTION]
> Note
> 
> If none of the options above are able to resolve your account access issues, then, for security reasons, Airtable Support is unable to help recover your account and you will need to create a new Airtable account under an email address where you do have access.

**I set up [two-factor authentication (2FA)](/v1/docs/enabling-two-factor-authentication) but lost access to my second authentication method. What can I do?**

If you can no longer access your second authentication method, click **Problems getting an authentication code?**

- This link will allow you to view all of your options for authentication. If you saved the backup codes provided when you set up 2FA, you can enter one by selecting **Use a backup code**.
- If you are still unable to access your account, please [contact our support team](/v1/docs/contacting-airtable-support).
