    If you select the Native option from the list, the Autogenerate Password checkbox is displayed, and the Password and Confirm Password fields get disabled. Selecting the Autogenerate Password option automatically generates a password for the user. Once the user is created, an email is sent to the user, including a temporary password, which is used to log in to Kyvos. Upon logging in, the user is redirected to the Change Password page to change the temporary password.
