ADMINRESETUSERPASSWORD()`¶

About AdminResetUserPassword¶

Begins the password reset process. Sets the requested user’s account into a RESET_REQUIRED status, and sends them a password-reset code. Your user pool also sends the user a notification with a reset code and the information that their password has been reset. At sign-in, your application or the managed login session receives a challenge to complete the reset by confirming the code and setting a new password.

To use this API operation, your user pool must have self-service account recovery configured.

This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, US telecom carriers require you to register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to US phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint. Amazon Cognito uses the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Amazon Cognito users who must receive SMS messages might not be able to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.

If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Services service, Amazon Simple Notification Service might place your account in the SMS sandbox. In sandbox mode , you can send messages only to verified phone numbers. After you test your app while in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Amazon Cognito user pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide.

Amazon Cognito evaluates Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies in requests for this API operation. For this operation, you must use IAM credentials to authorize requests, and you must grant yourself the corresponding IAM permission in a policy.

Method Signature¶

IMPORTING¶

Required arguments:¶

`iv_userpoolid` `TYPE /AWS1/CGPUSERPOOLIDTYPE` `/AWS1/CGPUSERPOOLIDTYPE`¶

The ID of the user pool where you want to reset the user's password.

`iv_username` `TYPE /AWS1/CGPUSERNAMETYPE` `/AWS1/CGPUSERNAMETYPE`¶

The name of the user that you want to query or modify. The value of this parameter is typically your user's username, but it can be any of their alias attributes. If username isn't an alias attribute in your user pool, this value must be the sub of a local user or the username of a user from a third-party IdP.

Optional arguments:¶

`it_clientmetadata` `TYPE /AWS1/CL_CGPCLIENTMETTYPE_W=>TT_CLIENTMETADATATYPE` `TT_CLIENTMETADATATYPE`¶

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.

You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. The AdminResetUserPassword API operation invokes the function that is assigned to the custom message trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminResetUserPassword request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

For more information, see Using Lambda triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide.

When you use the ClientMetadata parameter, note that Amazon Cognito won't do the following:

Store the ClientMetadata value. This data is available only to Lambda triggers that are assigned to a user pool to support custom workflows. If your user pool configuration doesn't include triggers, the ClientMetadata parameter serves no purpose.

Validate the ClientMetadata value.

Encrypt the ClientMetadata value. Don't send sensitive information in this parameter.

RETURNING¶

`oo_output` `TYPE REF TO /aws1/cl_cgpadminresetuserpa01` `/AWS1/CL_CGPADMINRESETUSERPA01`¶

Domain /AWS1/RT_ACCOUNT_ID

Primitive Type NUMC

Syntax Example¶

This is an example of the syntax for calling the method. It includes every possible argument and initializes every possible value. The data provided is not necessarily semantically accurate (for example the value "string" may be provided for something that is intended to be an instance ID, or in some cases two arguments may be mutually exclusive). The syntax shows the ABAP syntax for creating the various data structures.

DATA(lo_result) = lo_client->/aws1/if_cgp~adminresetuserpassword(
  it_clientmetadata = VALUE /aws1/cl_cgpclientmettype_w=>tt_clientmetadatatype(
    (
      VALUE /aws1/cl_cgpclientmettype_w=>ts_clientmetadatatype_maprow(
        key = |string|
        value = new /aws1/cl_cgpclientmettype_w( |string| )
      )
    )
  )
  iv_username = |string|
  iv_userpoolid = |string|
).

This is an example of reading all possible response values

lo_result = lo_result.
IF lo_result IS NOT INITIAL.
ENDIF.
