PW Change of local user via WebGUI

Solved942 views4th July 2023Cube password Password reset web app

Kristian Klewitz [DevOps Advocate]256 8th June 2023 0 Comments

Hi Skyline Team,

in our company a lot of people (including my boss :-)) are using Linux systems. So for access relevant infos for them we create dashboards as well as the basic monitoring is sufficiant.

https://dm-xxxx-platform.net/monitoring/

https://dm-xxx-platform.net/dashboard/#/

Problem comes with new users and PW policy > without the CUBE you can not change you PW.

A can not force them to have a VM + Cube for only this use case.

Nor is it nice like now to act as the PW generator and send SMS around.

Is there a way (maybe even API) to change the PW without Cube? Best would be withing this dialog , cerry on the cake a forgot pw mail 🙂

Thanks

BR Kristian

Hi Kristian,

If you do not force to change the password at next login, the user is able to change it via Webservices V1.

First connect:

curl --location 'https://DMA-HOSTNAME/API/v1/Json.asmx/ConnectApp' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"host": "",
"login": "USERNAME",
"password": "PASSWORD",
"clientAppName": "testAppName",
"clientAppVersion": "1.0",
"clientComputerName": "testComputerName"
}'

You will receive a connection ID then e.g.:

{
    "d": "e7f136d6-0a6e-4d32-b6c5-73ffd4cc1305"
}

Use this ID when changing the password:
curl --location 'https://DMA-HOSTNAME/API/v1/Json.asmx/ChangePassword' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"connection": "e7f136d6-0a6e-4d32-b6c5-73ffd4cc1305",
"newPassword": "NEWPASSWORD"
}'

Br,
Felix
