Thanks! I'll change it. This piece of code is attached to a template used for the "unlinked" situation on the resource which basically enables their resource accounts, moves them into their correct orgs, adds the groups, etc. When I initially imported all of our accounts I generated random passwords within midpoint before attaching other resources so we should not have any "blank" passwords out there but I will test and see. I have submitted paperwork to get you all added as an approved vendor so we can start a subscription, I haven't kept up with the changes since 3.2 so I am hoping to get help from you all with the upgrade process!

Hello Jason,

The Java code is almost OK - I would just change "> 0" to ">= 2" or ">= 4" (i.e. >=2, >=4) in first two and the third line, respectively, in order to threat short names/UIDnumber that would lead to IndexOutOfBoundsException.

And, as for the target path: It's hard to say. The way you've chosen seems to be logical. This part of midPoint is not much documented, so the only documentation is the code. And the code that implements credentials mappings is quite old and in some aspects not adequate (as I've learned recently), so it will be probably changed in near future. Therefore we are on thin ice here.

My suggestion: leave it as it is (if it's working). Maybe you could test it on a user that has no password at all, if it works also in this situation. And before any upgrade of midPoint (e.g. to 3.4.1 or 3.5), just retest it.

I've created a JIRA issue for this (MID-3330<https://jira.evolveum.com/browse/MID-3330>). It's not a much work, but most probably it would require a request of a subscriber or a little sponsoring.

Best regards,

I need to generate new temp credentials for returning users that have not used their account for years, most of them do not remember their security questions or they have changed mobile phone numbers so they cannot utilize our forgotten password process.

I have tested the below and it seems to be working, but since I am not a java guru I am not 100% confident it is correct. Can someone confirm? Mainly the target path

   <!-- example josm5983 -->
   <mapping>
      <source>
         <name>tmpGivenName</name>
         <path>$user/givenName</path>
      </source>
      <source>
         <name>tmpFamilyName</name>
         <path>$user/familyName</path>
      </source>
      <source>
         <name>tmpUidnumber</name>
         <path>
declare namespace bshp='http://midpoint.bshp.edu/schema/bshp';
$c:user/c:extension/bshp:uidnumber
</path>
      </source>
      <expression>
         <script>
            <code>
                        tmpGivenNameInit = basic.stringify(tmpGivenName)?.size() > 0 ? (basic.stringify(tmpGivenName)).substring(0,2) : ''
tmpFamilyNameInit = basic.stringify(tmpFamilyName)?.size() > 0 ? (basic.stringify(tmpFamilyName)).substring(0,2) : ''
     tmptmpUidnumberInit = basic.stringify(tmpUidnumber)?.size() > 0 ? (basic.stringify(tmpUidnumber)).substring(0,4) : ''

                        newPasswd = basic.norm(tmpGivenNameInit + tmpFamilyNameInit + tmptmpUidnumberInit)

                        basic.encrypt(newPasswd)
</code>
         </script>
      </expression>
      <target>
         <path>credentials/password/value</path>
      </target>
   </mapping>
