Password Variables to Set or Reset User Passwords
This feature is deprecated and should no longer be used, but may still be available for reasons of backwards compatibility. |
In the upcoming November 2023 release, password variables will be deprecated for improved security. All systems will be required to use the activation link variable (@activationlink@
) to send the user to a page where they can enter their desired password instead of using the soon to be deprecated password variable (@password@
) which sends a password in email.
Therefore, the following variables will be deprecated and will not work after the November upgrade:
-
@password@
-
@checkportalpassword@
-
@checkactivatedpassword@
-
@randompassword@
-
@passwordresetlink@
.
If you need help updating email templates for new users or password resets, reach out to our Support team. These email templates are located at Menu Icon > Global Settings > Security tab > Password and Activation Policies > Activation Emails tab. Clicking the Sample Template link will update the templates with the desired variable. Make sure to check any existing workflow emails for these soon-to-be deprecated variables.
Depending on how your user signup pages are configured, you may also need to update signup page templates for new users which can be found at Menu Icon > Global Settings > Communications > System Email Templates. You can filter the list by searching for “Signup”.
