Active Directory- Create User Password

[bcastro]

Hello automation Pros!

I am working on a recipe that creates users in Active Directory using Windows Server.

I am trying to map Password but I can't find the field to map it.

According to AD Docs the field should be: userPassword

Searching by Passw... in the list of fields to map I found the ones in the image attached.

Anyone one that can help?

Hi Berenice,

Setting a user's password is actually a separate action..so you can have an action to create the user first, then a subsequent one to set the password.

Hope this helps!

Just extending CJ's answer...

I think you also need to connect to AD using LDAPS (port 636).

I was able to find Operation Set User Password in Active Directory. Thanks.

Hello Again automation Pros! Continuing with this thread. While using Set Password to User operation I am getting error:

[LDAP: error code 53 - 0000001F: SvcErr: DSID-031A125F, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0

]; nested exception is javax.naming.OperationNotSupportedException: [LDAP: error code 53 - 0000001F: SvcErr: DSID-031A125F, problem 5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0

I am passing the password as a siple string without encoding it.

Anyone has experienced the same issue? Is it related to the Password Policy set in LDAP? Thanks
