Adding recovery information to your Google Workspace account

Recovery information — a backup email address or phone number — lets you get back into your account and reset your password if you ever lose it. You add it from the Security section of your user's page in the Google admin console.

  1. Navigate to the Users page in your Google admin console.
  2. Click your user from the list.
  3. In the Security section, click Add a recovery email or Add a recovery phone.
  4. Click the pencil icon in the Recovery information section.
    Here you can enter a recovery email address and phone number. You can use this information to log into your account should you ever lose your password.
