    Function policyCheckUpdateUser

    • Returns a list of statements explaining why the password policy would disallow a proposed new password for a user with an existing password. You can use this method to test the password policy validation. This could be done prior to an action where the password is actually updated, using methods like ChangePassword or ResetPassword. For example, you could use this to validate a password in a change password form in the user interface, as the user enters it. The user must exist and the username and new password must be not empty, to perform the validation. Note, this method will help you validate against the policy only. It won't check any other validations that might be performed when submitting a password change/reset request, e.g. verifying whether the old password is valid.

      • client: Client
      • parameters: { newPassword?: string; oldPassword?: string; username?: string }
