Summary

Set a new password for an existing user account on a NetApp ONTAP cluster.

Inputs

  • Cluster Host (required) — Hostname or IP address of the ONTAP cluster management LIF
  • Port — HTTPS port for the ONTAP REST API (default: 443)
  • Account (required) — Identify the user account by name and owner UUID in the format 'ownerUuid/accountName'
  • New Password (required) — New password to set for the account
  • Options — Optional parameters such as 'Fields' to specify which fields to include in the response

Output shape

A single JSON object representing the updated account or a confirmation object indicating success if the operation completed synchronously, or an async job object if the update is processed asynchronously.

If the password update triggers an asynchronous job, the node waits for completion and returns the final job response; otherwise, it returns a success message. The account must be specified using the combination of owner UUID and account name separated by '/'. Any additional fields to include in the response can be specified via the 'Fields' option.
