Hi fatima,
The login element also has the attribute 'agreedToTerms'.
You can use this attribute to know whether the account is newly created or not.
My pseudo code(very pythonic):
----------------------------------------------------------------
for entry in get_all_entries():
if entry.login.agreedToTerms == 'false' and \
entry.login.changePasswordAtNextLogin == 'false':
entry.login.changePasswordAtNextLogin = 'true'
update_entry(entry)
----------------------------------------------------------------
hope it helps.
Regards,
-- Takashi Matsuo
