Hello All,

I am looking for guidance for API script which used for password rotation of any managed account.

We are currently using shell script for password rotation, but it seems failing for Invalid user/Password event though password fetch script is working fine for same user.

If anyone has sample script, please share or if anyone knows pointer to develop new script for this requirement please help.

Thanks,

Prasad

If your API for password retrieval is working then your Password rotation API is likely the issue. You can take reference on this KB and there are some pointers to look at the error code or which logs to see what the issue is.

I have the same problem.
What would be the script to search for passwords for users? Please

In the KB0017018 that I have provided there is a sample powershell script (API retrieve Password.ps1).

Hello @Howard ,

Do you have any sample script to rotate credentials? or any KBA that can guide for this.

Thanks,
