Custom password for guest accounts?

reggie_obos

We will be having a company event and there was a request to have a single guest account to be used by the participants of the event. It was also requested that the password be customized to something that can be easily remembered.

 

Question is - is there any way for an admin/sponsor to customize a password for a guest account?

I cannot allow guests to change their password after login as there are multiple users who will have access to this account!

 

Thanks in advance folks!

An option not available to sponsors, but available to admins is to go to Administration->Identities and create a user account with the desired username and password, then map it to the Guest Type of your choosing.  Make sure your Guest authentication sequence contains "Internal Users" as well as the default of "Guest Users"

On 2.2 version the answer is NO. The only thing you can do is temporarily modify the following so the guest accounts are easy to recall. Just make username + password characters small length

Hi Abraham,


Thanks for the reply! Actually another community member suggested to create a local identity where you can set a password. I tested it in our environment and it actually worked :) 

 

Thanks again!
