# Request Password Reset Email

`POST /api/v1/auth/password-reset-email`

Send a password reset email through MAIA's branded transactional channel.

Rate Limited: 5 requests per minute per IP address.

Does not require authentication — public endpoint for the forgot-password
flow. Always returns 202 regardless of whether the email maps to an
account: the lookup and send happen in a background task after the
response, so account existence leaks through neither status, body, nor
timing.

- PasswordResetEmailRequest — Request model for sending a password reset email.
  - `email` string, email, required

## Response `202`
