Hello everyone,
Please I need your help to see what I may be missing
Here is my goal:
When a new user is created, I want to generate a random password so I can send this password to the user. The user will use the random password to reset the password and log in to the system.
Using the script below, I see a random password is created when I check the log. I have a custom field Pword, just for comparison. The generated temporary password shows on the log, but when I attempt to log in with the password, it doesn't work. This mean my password doesn't seem to be working Please help me evaluate.
Thank you
(function executeRule(current, previous /*null when async*/ ) {
// Add your code here
var chars = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXTZabcdefghiklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
var string_length = 8;
var randomstring = '';
for (var i = 0; i < string_length; i++) {
var rnum = Math.floor(Math.random() * chars.length);
randomstring += chars.substring(rnum, rnum + 1);
}
var password = current.user_password.setDisplayValue(randomstring);
randomstring = current.user_password;
current.password_needs_reset = true;
current.update();
var Pword = current.user_password;
gs.log("password.. " + Pword);
gs.log("randomstring.. " + randomstring);
})(current, previous);
