changing AEP password through AEP API not working

[george wang]

I am trying to change the AEP password through AEP API:
http://www.multitech.net/developer/software/aep/conduit-aep-api/collection-endpoints-conduit/users-conduit/

I tried the following from console:
admin@mtcdt:~# curl 127.0.0.1/api/users/admin -X PUT –data ‘{“password”:”mynewpasswd”}’ -H “Content-Type: application/json”

and got reply:
{
“code” : 200,
“status” : “success”
}

But the password didn’t get changed.
I also tried similar commands but no luck.

What’s the right way to change AEP password through API?

George,

I have gotten the following to work at some point:

curl -s -m 5 -X PUT -H ‘Content-Type: application/json’ -d ‘{“name” : “admin”, “password” : “admin”, “newPassword” : “admin123”}’ 127.0.0.1/api/users

Where your actually doing a put on the user collection instead with the existing user “admin” and the old password “admin” and the newPassoword specified.

Let me know if that helps.

Jeff
