user.set_password

Set the password of the specified username to the new_password specified in payload.

A JSON-RPC error response (code -32602, Invalid params) is returned in the following situations:

• the user does not exist

• the account is not local to the NAS (Active Directory, LDAP, etc.)

• the account has password authentication disabled

• the account is locked

Note

When the authenticated session has less than the FULL_ADMIN role, password changes will be rejected if the payload does not match the currently-authenticated user. Users authenticated with a one-time password are exempt and may change the password without submitting it a second time.
