What this page does
The Passkey Manager (/settings/user-practitioner/edit-user/{userQuery}/passkey-manager/) manages WebAuthn passkeys for a staff member's sign-in. Passkeys let someone sign in using their device's built-in security — such as a fingerprint, face unlock, or security key — instead of typing a password.
What you'll learn
- What a passkey is and why it's more secure than a password
- How to register a new passkey for a user
- How to remove a passkey that's already registered
- Where to go for related sign-in and verification topics
The Passkey Manager page for a staff member, showing the list of registered passkeys with their device names and registration dates, plus an option to add a new passkey.
Why passkeys
A stronger, phishing-resistant alternative to passwords Passkeys are tied to the physical device that created them and can't be phished the way a typed password can, since there's no shared secret to trick someone into revealing. Registering a passkey gives a staff member a stronger way to sign in without replacing their password entirely.
Managing passkeys
From this page you can see which passkeys are already registered to the account and remove one if it's no longer needed — for example, if the device it was registered on was lost or replaced.

Frequently asked questions
No, registering a passkey doesn't remove your password. It adds a stronger sign-in option alongside it.
Remove that passkey from the Passkey Manager and register a new one on your replacement device.
