Updating Password using REST

[david_jones]

- Create a Service Catalog

- Take two variables

        User Name - Reference [sys_user]

        New Password - Single Line Text

- On Order Now Button

- Using REST message on another instance selected user name should set the new password.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so i have tried doing fields other than password all fields get fixed but password field is not getting set.

so can anyone please assist me for this problem.

Make sure you are setting the display value on the password field in your code or the change won't take.

#make sure you have made an outbound message !!

#make sure patch method is used with appropriate sys_id !!

#make sure in Patch query parameter write name: sysparm_input_display_value   Value :true

then after

put this business rule on requested item

var r = new sn_ws.RESTMessageV2('PasswordResetter', 'PATCH');

r.setQueryParameter('sysparm_input_display_value',true);

r.setStringParameterNoEscape('user_password',current.variables.YOUR PASSWORD VARIABLE NAME);

var response = r.execute();

var responseBody = response.getBody();

var httpStatus = response.getStatusCode();
