What is the Welcome Email and how can I send it?
What is the Welcome Email?
The Welcome Email resets the user’s password and sends them an email containing their login details (including their temporary password).
There are a few times when you may want to send out a Welcome Email, such as:
- Launching Perform to your team
- Adding new employees to Perform
- When an employee cannot reset their password on their own

Sending the Welcome Email to a Single Employee
Log in as an admin, and navigate to Employees > Active. Select the employee you’d like to send the email to.
From their profile, click on Send Welcome Email. You'll be able to see the last time a Welcome Email was sent here as well.
The Welcome Email will then be sent to the employee.
Sending the Welcome Email in Bulk
Log in as an admin, and navigate to Employees > Active. Check the box next to each employee you’d like to send a Welcome Email. Click Bulk Edit.
Scroll down to the Send Welcome Email section, and click on Send Welcome Email.
The Welcome Email will then be sent to all selected employees.
Note: If you have SSO enabled, we highly recommend editing the Welcome Email before sending it to your employees - otherwise, it will include non-relevant information about their login name and password. You can learn more about editing the Welcome Email - and all emails! - here. We suggest the following text:
