Overview

There are some types of resources, for example, users or servers, that require a password. A customer or end user need to change a password in some specific cases or periodically. The aps/changePassword is a method that creates a pop-up window to change a password.

To use the method in a JavaScript code, add the respective module to the define list and the main callback function. The method accepts an object containing up to 3 input parameters (all are optional), returns a dojo/Deferred promise, and creates a popup interaction window. After a user completes entering a password in the embedded aps/Password widget, the promise is resolved and the method passes the changed password to the callback function.

define([...,
      "aps/changePassword",
   ], function(..., changePassword) {
      ...
      var resourcePassword;
      changePassword({  // All inputs are optional
         resourceName: <String>,
         description: <String>,
         passwordProperties: { <properties of the aps/Password widget> }
      }).then(function(newPassword) {
         ...
         resourcePassword = newPassword;
         ...
      });
});
