CUPI: How to assign Authentication Rule to User Password Settings

[grektokomus]

Is it possible via the Unity API (CUPI) to assign an Authentication Rule to the User's Password settings?

In the UI, under Users > Edit User Basics >Edit > Password Settings > Authentication Rule, there is a drop down list.  I want to assign one of the choices from this list to the user via the API.  

I have acquired the Authentication Rule to be assigned.  Have not been able to find an attribute of User or a nested attribute where this rule can be assigned.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Greg,

Have you done a get on the 

https://<cucserver>/vmrest/users/<user object id>/credential/password

While I can't find a doc there is the credential policy object id field here is but there is a field I would expect aligns with that field to align with the policy.

Let me see if I can test.

Yeah I can toggle the parameter on the user in the gui and I see this field change. Question is the put to change it...

[Gregory Brunn]

Yup put works to change this.  Tested the put in post man

Put

https://<CUC>/vmrest/users/<user guid>/credential/password

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Credential>
<CredentialPolicyObjectId>GUID of the object ID of the auth policy</CredentialPolicyObjectId>
</Credential>

Working so predicted.  Let me know if you need help scripting this via python to update your users.
