topic REST API -&gt; changepassword programatically? HELP!!! in Alfresco Archive https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/rest-api-gt-changepassword-programatically-help/m-p/268734#M221864 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have been trying for several days to make a little application that will generate a new randomly generated password for a given inputted username. I have tried setting alf_ticket to the parsed out ticket, and including the ticket in the http headers… What else can I do? The code below represents the 'last try' before posting this. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I see a number of different threads containing similar requests. My code below is php, but I can reverse engineer anything short of assembly code, if someone happens to have done something like this in PERL, Ruby, Java, or Haskell for that matter… The key is that it's an external app interfacing with Alfresco. Any help would be appreciated. Is it appropriate to offer to buy someone beer over a forum?&nbsp; <img id="smileyvery-happy" class="emoticon emoticon-smileyvery-happy" src="https://connect.hyland.com/i/smilies/16x16_smiley-very-happy.png" alt="Smiley Very Happy" title="Smiley Very Happy" /> </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Many thanks for any guidance that anyone may be able to give.
