Reset Password in Headless

[ricocsharp]

Working with a Headless solution is there any endpoint to recover password or something like that ?

I don't think so, @Skrypt correct me if I'm wrong

[ricocsharp]

So how this can be achieved with an extension?

[hishamco]

Seems we miss a lot of functionalities in terms of REST APIs

No there is no endpoint to recover password for admin. However it's achievable same way as in ASP.NET Identity, as OC implements ASP.NET Identity

I'm not talking about admin password, a mean any user password since my Solution is based on Headless CMS and a Angular 13 client app

It seems that you are looking for self service password reset functionality.

There is no built in feature. However Admin can reset password for user.

You can implement self service password reset functionality using custom module.

You need to implement generating password reset token and/or send token via email.

You can inject password manager in your controller and use GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync to generate token.

var token = await _userManager.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync(user);

And send token via email and implement action/url that reads token and reset user's password by calling ResetPasswordAsync

  var resetPassResult = await _userManager. ResetPasswordAsync(user, resetPasswordModel.Token, resetPasswordModel.Password);
