Reset password using SSH
Can I use SSH to reset a user's password? How? I'd like it as an option in case an admin password gets lost and isn't recoverable by other means.

Hi Tim,
Thank you for your question. You can use API to reset a users password and prompt them to create a new one. https://sisense.dev/guides/restApi/v0/?platform=linux&spec=L2023.11#/users/forgetPassword
I hope that helps. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Have a great day!
All I've got is the SSH password in the scenario I'm thinking of. No API token/password.
So you are looking for a command line entry to reset a Sisense users password, is that correct? There is not a command for that. If you are trying to reset the pw for a user on the server, not a Sisense user, I recommend consulting the documentation for the Operating System.
