The entry to modify can be fetched by its ID or by a PSConnection object obtained from Get-RDMEntry, New-RDMEntry, Get-RDMPersonalCredentials, or Get-RDMPrivilegedAccount. In the latter case, the local object will be modified. To modify the password, the user must have the appropriate rights: add for a new entry, and edit for an existing one. For workspace supporting the password age, it is also possible to modify that value for the new password. It can be used to indicate when the password was generated instead of when the password has been set in the entry. ### Examples #### Example 1 ```powershell PS C:\> $entry = New-RDMEntry -Type Credential -Name 'NewCredEntry'; $entry.Credentials.UserName = 'MyUserName'; Set-RDMEntryPassword -InputObject $entry -Password (Read-Host -AsSecureString -Prompt 'Password') Set-RDMEntry -InputObject $entry ``` The user create a new credential entry. Its username and password are being set. The call to Set-RDMEntryPassword does modify the local object. The user can do more modifications if desired. The last line finally save the new entry. #### Example 2 ```powershell PS C:\> $pwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -String 'passwordFr0mSomewhereElse'; Get-RDMEntry -Name 'EntryToModify' | Set-RDMEntryPassword -Password $pwd -PasswordAge 14 -Set -Refresh ``` The entry named 'EntryToModify' will have an updated password, the one stored in $pwd, and it will be aged of 14 days. #### Example 3 ```powershell PS C:\> Get-RDMEntry -Name 'UniqueName' | Set-RDMEntryDomain -Domain 'MyOtherDomain.com' -PassThru | Set-RDMEntryPassword -Password $securePassword -PassThru | Set-RDMEntryUsername -UserName 'NewUserName' -PassThru | Set-RDMEntry ``` Modify the domain, password and username of the entry named 'UniqueName'. The variable $securePassword is a secure string previously set. Persist the modification with the Set-RDMEntry call. ### Parameters #### -Confirm Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet. ```yaml Type: System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter DefaultValue: False SupportsWildcards: false Aliases: - cf ParameterSets: - Name: (All) Position: Named IsRequired: false ValueFromPipeline: false ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName: false ValueFromRemainingArguments: false DontShow: false AcceptedValues: [] HelpMessage: '' ``` #### -ForcePromptAnswer Switch to use with caution. It will automatically answer prompt asking yes/no, yes/no/cancel, or ok/cancel questions. In case of multiple prompts, multiple values can be passed to this parameter. Here are the accepted values: * Yes: Accept the prompt. Cover the OK and Automatic value. * No: Refuse the yes/no/cancel prompt. "Cancel" is the fallback option if there is no "No" option. * Cancel: Cancel the yes/no/cancel prompt. "No" is the fallback option if there is no "Cancel" option. ```yaml Type: System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult[] DefaultValue: '' SupportsWildcards: false Aliases: [] ParameterSets: - Name: (All) Position: Named IsRequired: false ValueFromPipeline: false ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName: false ValueFromRemainingArguments: false DontShow: false AcceptedValues: [] HelpMessage: '' ``` #### -ID Specifies the ID of the session to get the password from. Must be a valid GUID, in the form {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}. ```yaml Type: System.Guid DefaultValue: '' SupportsWildcards: false Aliases: [] ParameterSets: - Name: Id Position: 0 IsRequired: true ValueFromPipeline: true ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName: false ValueFromRemainingArguments: false DontShow: false AcceptedValues: [] HelpMessage: '' ``` #### -InputObject Specifies the session to set the password to. ```yaml Type: RemoteDesktopManager.PowerShellModule.PSOutputObject.PSConnection DefaultValue: '' SupportsWildcards: false Aliases: [] ParameterSets: - Name: InputObject Position: 0 IsRequired: true ValueFromPipeline: true ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName: false ValueFromRemainingArguments: false DontShow: false AcceptedValues: [] HelpMessage: '' ``` #### -PassThru Return the modified entry. ```yaml Type: System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter DefaultValue: '' SupportsWildcards: false Aliases: [] ParameterSets: - Name: (All) Position: Named IsRequired: false ValueFromPipeline: false ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName: false ValueFromRemainingArguments: false DontShow: false AcceptedValues: [] HelpMessage: '' ``` #### -Password Password as SecureString.

Can be obtained from Get-RDMEntry, New-RDMEntry, Get-RDMPersonalCredentials, or Get-RDMPrivilegedAccount. ### Notes For more information, type "Get-Help Set-RDMEntryPassword -detailed".

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell/powershell-commands/set-rdmentrypassword.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
