# Set-RDMSessionPassword

### Synopsis

Set the password from the specified session.

### Syntax

#### Id

```
Set-RDMSessionPassword [-ID] <guid> [-Password] <securestring> [[-PasswordAge] <int>]
 [[-PasswordSinceDate] <datetime>] [-PassThru] [-Refresh] [-SetSession]
 [-ForcePromptAnswer <DialogResult[]>] [<CommonParameters>]
```

#### InputObject

```
Set-RDMSessionPassword [-Session] <PSConnection> [-Password] <securestring> [[-PasswordAge] <int>]
 [[-PasswordSinceDate] <datetime>] [-PassThru] [-Refresh] [-SetSession]
 [-ForcePromptAnswer <DialogResult[]>] [<CommonParameters>]
```

### Description

Set the password from the specified session. Session must be marked as "Allow show credentials" if not null is returned. To persist the new password, the switch SetSession must be used.

### Examples

#### Example 1

```powershell
PS C:\> Set-RDMSessionPassword -ID "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}" -Password (Read-Host -AsSecureString "Password") -SetSession
```

Set the password from the session with ID = "{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}".

#### Example 2

```powershell
PS C:\> $list = Get-RDMSession; Set-RDMSessionPassword -ID $list[1].ID -Password (Read-Host -AsSecureString "Password") -SetSession
```

Retrieves the list of available sessions and sets the password from the the second element in the list.

#### Example 3

```powershell
PS C:\> Get-RDMSession -Name 'UniqueName' |
                    Set-RDMSessionDomain -Domain "MyOtherDomain.com" -PassThru |
                    Set-RDMSessionPassword -Password $securePassword -PassThru |
                    Set-RDMSessionUsername -UserName 'NewUserName' -PassThru |
                    Set-RDMSession
```

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-RDMSession call.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

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-rdmsessionpassword.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
