# Reset user password — Active Directory

Botize method — `adirectory.reset_password` (action).

Reset the password of a user in your Active Directory.

This is an action: it runs as a step of a task. Several can be chained.

## Fields you set

The field's internal name, its type and the values it accepts. These fields accept `{{...}}` tags from earlier steps.

- `username` *(string)* — User name to change password
- `by` *(string, one of: "cn" = By 'CN'; "uid" = By 'UID')* — Identify user name by

*(Fields derived from the configuration form.)*

## Output variables

Data this step makes available. Reference them in later steps with the double-brace tag.

- `{{cn}}` *(int)* — CN
- `{{sn}}` *(text)* — SN
- `{{mail}}` *(text)* — Mail
- `{{temp_new_password}}` *(text)* — New temporal password
