About user password reset with REST API

toru sato asked on June 10, 2020 06:44

I want to call REST API to reset the password for a particular user. (I want to send an email notification to the user by pressing the Users application password -> Generate new password button) Is that possible?

I am able to call the rest api to get the user information and update the user information, but I don't know how to reset the password.

If anyone knows please let me know!

Yes you can do this, There is already a sample code and way to do it. Please check this here if you are using MVC application Reset password and if you are using portal engine here is the link for Rest password.

Hi Sultan Thanks for the answer This seems like it can be done! I'm using Kentico 11, so check if it works with Kentico 11 and set the best answer!

Hi Sultan I'm making a site with the portal engine development model. There are some things I don't understand because the procedure I've been told is the same as for MVC. It seems that Kentico membership integration is required before implementing a password reset controller. link

It says "Add a Startup.Auth class to your project's App_Start folder". Do you know what folder the App_Start folder corresponds to in Portal Engine?
