Resets the specified user's password in a user pool as an administrator. Works on any user.

cognitoidentityprovider_admin_reset_user_password(
UserPoolId,
Username,
ClientMetadata = NULL
)
[required] The user pool ID for the user pool where you want to reset the user's password.
[required] The username of the user that you want to query or modify. The value of
this parameter is typically your user's username, but it can be any of
their alias attributes. If username
isn't an alias attribute in your
user pool, this value must be the sub
of a local user or the username
of a user from a third-party IdP.
A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool
triggers. When you use the AdminResetUserPassword API action, Amazon
Cognito invokes the function that is assigned to the custom message
trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON
payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a
clientMetadata
attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to
the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminResetUserPassword request. In
your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata
value
to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.
For more information, see Customizing user pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide.
When you use the ClientMetadata parameter, remember that Amazon Cognito won't do the following:
Store the ClientMetadata value. This data is available only to Lambda triggers that are assigned to a user pool to support custom workflows. If your user pool configuration doesn't include triggers, the ClientMetadata parameter serves no purpose.
Validate the ClientMetadata value.
Encrypt the ClientMetadata value. Don't use Amazon Cognito to provide sensitive information.
