The reset_pw page is where a user would be directed to when they do not remember their password and they are relying on Bubble to reset the password for them, so in that situation they would not need to have a random password for them.
If you wanted to make use of the random password and send that in an email to your user as a value of a password to an account on your application, make sure for data protection you at least do it in a backend workflow (all of it included generating the random password). Part of the reason to use the magic link feature is to help with data protection.
Also, make sure that if you are generating that random password and want them to use it in order to change the password to something of their own, then you wouldn’t link them to the reset_pw page. You would need to link them to a page where you have created the elements and workflows to allow them to enter the randomly generated password and their new password. With that you’d use the workflow action to update the users credentials.
