My iPhone is locked

I forgot my device password and the device is locked. Now I remembered the password, I also have an Apple ID. How can I unlock my device without erasing the data?

iPhone 13 Pro Max, iOS 16

If you see an iPhone or iPad unavailable message or Security Lockout screen - Apple Support


but after you reset you can restore with backup if you had backed up before with iCloud
