Create/update contact password from an external system
Answer ID 12007 |
Last Review Date 11/04/2021
How do we update a contact's password with an API request?
Environment:
- Oracle B2C Service, any version
- Connect REST API, Connect Web Services for SOAP, Connect PHP API
Issue:
Need to set passwords for contacts (Customer Portal users) created from an integration with an external system.
Connect APIs do not accept a "password" field when creating or updating a contact.
Resolution:
Send the field "NewPassword" (SOAP/PHP) / "newPassword" (REST) on contact creation or update.
Refer to the Technical Documentation and Sample Code for the API you are using.
