Request syntax

svc$admin_set_user_password(
  UserPoolId = "string",
  Username = "string",
  Password = "string",
  Permanent = TRUE|FALSE
)

Details

The password can be temporary or permanent. If it is temporary, the user status will be placed into the FORCE_CHANGE_PASSWORD state. When the user next tries to sign in, the InitiateAuth/AdminInitiateAuth response will contain the NEW_PASSWORD_REQUIRED challenge. If the user does not sign in before it expires, the user will not be able to sign in and their password will need to be reset by an administrator.

Once the user has set a new password, or the password is permanent, the user status will be set to Confirmed.
