[deepamehta-devel] REST API - Change User Password

[Jörg Richter]

Hi JuergeN,

to change the password of an user account:

    curl -X PUT http://localhost:8080/core/topic/1234 -H Content-Type:application/json -d '{
        childs: {
            dm4.accesscontrol.password: "-SHA256-a665a45920422f9d417e4867efdc4fb8..."
        }
    }'

Here 1234 is the ID of the User Account topic whose password is to be changed.
The password is the SHA-256 hash of the plain text password, preceded by "-SHA256-".

This request is allowed only for the account owner.
You have to authenticate the request, either by an "Authorization" header, or a "Cookie" header containing a JSESSIONID.

Let me know if you need further info.

Cheers,
Jörg
