Hi All,

I am doing a project in college and I have developed a web-app,in which I have to add a module, to reset the password of the user in my web-app as well as in servicenow at a time.How shall I implement this? Kindly suggest me some some Service-Now APIs for this.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Gomathi,

you should check on the REST API Explorer and check the sys_user table.

you should be able to modify fields using the API with correct PUT/PATCH method.

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also hit Like and Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.

Thanks

Hi,

The above thread was useful. But is there any way to pre-encrypt the passwords when there is a patch request

pass ?sysparm_input_display_value=true along with url to encrypt your password. This works in the case of creation as well as patching.
