Solution (thanks Alex!):
User logs in with emailed password
Screen to set new password appears

Extra:
After a couple of minutes of inaction the session expires
Show toast message “Session expired, please try again.” and redirect to login page

A user created from the Cognito dashboard receives the following email. Please, check this email template.

Hey @creynolds could you please take a look at the email template above. This is an email message that user receives after registration from cognito panel. It seems this should be something like this

Hi {$username}
Welcome to Wikimedia Enterprise
Your temporary password:
{$password}
<a target="_blank" href="${this.domainName}/login/">Login</a> using these credentials
Thanks

@Alexander.lauie I thought what @Anna.bondar had in the email template was good. We should state their username clearly like that as it isn't inherently understood that the "HI {blah}" is their username to log in with... also don't need to target blank in anchor tag inside emails.
