Updating a local user password

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.

By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

1. See the description of the CLI command for resetting a user password in a pool:

   yc organization-manager idp user reset-password --help
   

2. To get a list of pools in an organization, provide its ID in this command:

   yc organization-manager idp userpool list \
     --organization-id <organization_ID>
   

   Result:

   +----------------------+--------------+-------------+----------------------+---------------------+
   |          ID          |     NAME     | DESCRIPTION |   ORGANIZATION ID    |     CREATED AT      |
   +----------------------+--------------+-------------+----------------------+---------------------+
   | ek0o6g0irskn******** | sample-pool1 |             | bpf2c65rqcl8******** | 2025-05-17 10:01:04 |
   | ek03mf01jr4z******** | sample-pool2 |             | bpf2c65rqcl8******** | 2025-06-28 16:30:23 |
   +----------------------+--------------+-------------+----------------------+---------------------+
   

3. To get the IDs and other information about pool users, provide the pool ID in the following command:

   yc organization-manager idp user list \
     --userpool-id <user_pool_ID>
   

   Result:

   +----------------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+----------------------+-----------+---------------------+
   |          ID          |                USERNAME                | FULL NAME |     USERPOOL ID      | IS ACTIVE |     CREATED AT      |
   +----------------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+----------------------+-----------+---------------------+
   | aje3i1gq49n3******** | test-user1@test.ru.idp.yandexcloud.net | User 1    | ek0o6g0irskn******** | true      | 2025-10-07 10:41:54 |
   | aje0j5mts02t******** | test-user2@test.ru.idp.yandexcloud.net | User 2    | ek0o6g0irskn******** | false     | 2025-07-16 11:18:57 |
   +----------------------+----------------------------------------+-----------+----------------------+-----------+---------------------+
   

4. Run the command, specifying the user ID:

   yc organization-manager idp user reset-password <user_ID>
   

   Result:

   generated password for user 'ek0gkfu0jc7v********' is 'rhls-mpvg-****-****'
   

   Save the generated password and communicate it to the user. After closing the shell, you will not be able to view the new password.

Use the User.GeneratePassword REST API method for the User resource or the UserService/GeneratePassword gRPC API call.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.

4. Run this command, specifying the user ID and their new password in the --password parameter:

   yc organization-manager idp user set-password <user_ID> \
     --password <new_password>
   

   Note

   The new password must comply with the user pool's password policy.

With Terraform, you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.

Terraform is distributed under the Business Source License. The Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform is distributed under the MPL-2.0 license.

For more information about the provider resources, see the relevant documentation on the Terraform website or its mirror.

If you do not have Terraform yet, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

1. Describe the user parameters in the configuration file:

   resource "yandex_organizationmanager_idp_user" "example_user" {
     userpool_id = "<pool_ID>"
     username    = "<username>"
     full_name   = "<full_username>"
     password_spec = {
       password = "<new_password>"
     }
   }
   

   Where:

   • userpool_id: ID of the pool the user is in.
   • username: Username.
   • full_name: User’s full name.
   • password: New user password.

   Note

   The new password must comply with the user pool's password policy.

   For more information about yandex_organizationmanager_idp_user properties, see the relevant provider documentation.

2. Create the resources:

   1. In the terminal, go to the directory where you edited the configuration file.

   2. Make sure the configuration file is correct using this command:

      terraform validate
      

      If the configuration is correct, you will get this message:

      Success! The configuration is valid.
      

   3. Run this command:

      terraform plan
      

      You will see a detailed list of resources. No changes will be made at this step. If the configuration contains any errors, Terraform will show them.

   4. Apply the changes:

      terraform apply
      

   5. Type yes and press Enter to confirm the changes.

Use the User.SetOwnPassword REST API method for the User resource or the UserService/SetOwnPassword gRPC API call.
