The correct code is:
public string resetPassword(string username, string newpass)
{
AppsService service = new AppsService(domain, adminEmail,
adminPass);
string response = null;
string result = null;
try
{
UserEntry entry = service.RetrieveUser(username);
entry.Login.Password = newpass;
entry = service.UpdateUser(entry);
}
catch(AppsException ex)
{
response = "::" + ex.ErrorCode + "::" +
ex.InvalidInput + "::" + ex.Reason + "::";
worker.logThisStuff("gResetPassword :", response);
result = ex.Reason;
}
return result;
}
service is an authenticated AppsService in debug the RetrieveUser
seems to be working as it displays the username and not a null value.
So it looks like there is a failure in the UpdateUser call, however it
does not throw an exception. I tried to go off of the data provided
for .net and from my understanding UpdateUser can change password,
firstname, or lastname. do these need to be submitted on every update
user call? should i be passing the FamilyName and GivenName through
with the password?
