Hi Guys,

In IFS cloud versions since there are no database end users what’s the workaround to update end users manually?

Use case is we have a customer who has recently upgraded to IFS cloud 22R1 and they are having 1000+ users who need to access the environment. Instead of changing passwords from the application user window one by one wondering is there an easy method of doing this.

TIA

Hello,

I’ve noticed no responses to this for quite some time….

We are starting project to move from Apps 10 to IFS Cloud.

Just gone to login and it is prompting to update password as per below.

 

 

Anyone no if this can be disabled or a means to mass update all our user accounts?

Hi,

I think you have to use the REST API for that. There is an API called UserHandling which includes a function SetUserPassword. 

The payload looks like this:

{
  "Username": "It is a Text",
  "Password": "It is a Text",
  "PasswordConfirm": "It is a Text",
  "Temporary": true
}

So you could build something which creates this payload for all users and sends a POST request.

Cheers,

Golo

Thank you for the tip! we have had the same requirement, and we managed to do it by creating a powershell script or postman.
First created a new IamClient user, granted necessary permission, and then called the above mentioned endpoint using that client secret for the OAuth2.0 authentication.
