Hello All,

I m trying to write Add an User by AML.

AML i write is here..

<AML>
<Item type="User" action="add">
<first_name>Andy</first_name>
<login_name>andy</login_name>
<password>1234</password>
<logon_enabled>true</logon_enabled>
</Item>
</AML>

Above works perfectly. But User was not able to do login . user get error Authentication failed for User.

After updation of Same record using Innovator user was able to log in. I just had reset Properties

(1)Password

(2)Confirm Password.

So Here i just want to know that how can i define the property that are being used by Form only. ( confirm password)

while i was writing AML i could not found " Confirm Password " property in selection.

Thanks in Advance :-)

Try sending the password as md5 hash, not plain text

Hello Georg Sandritter,

Thank you for your response and hint about using "MD5"

I came to know that Aras innovator uses datatype MD5 for Password Property used in USER item Type.

MD5 is algorithm that encrypt the given value .

Now i was wondering how to use datatype of any property while i m writing AML. Means in above AML how i can send Password using MD5 ?

can you please edit below   AML that sends the Password using MD5.

<AML>
<Item type="User" action="add">
<first_name>Andy</first_name>
<login_name>andy</login_name>
<password>1234</password>
<logon_enabled>true</logon_enabled>
</Item>
</AML>

Thanks In advance :-)

for a quick md5 generation you could use the search engine duckduckgo.com. Search for md5 passwort and you'll get the md5 hash of the apssword additionally to the serach results
