This action allows the user to update the password of an existing user within ExtraView.

SYNTAX

http://www.myserver.com/evj/ExtraView/ev_api.action?
user_id=username
&password=password OR [&access_token=token-value]
&statevar=update_user_password
&p_template_file=file.html
&security_user_id=user_name
&old_password=old_password
&new_password=new_password

NOTES

You must provide the ID of an existing user in the security_user_id parameter.

You must provide both the old password and the new password. These will be checked internally within ExtraView to ensure they conform to any rule that may be in place.

You must have update permission to the security key named SE_SECURITY_USER before you can execute the command.

The optional access_token parameter allows you to use a valid OAuth2 token obtained with the get_token command. If you provide the access_token parameter, then the user_id and password parameters should not be provided. This prevents the password being sent in clear text over your network connection.
