Hey Stian,
thanks for your reply! That works, however we have a couple of issues with
the suggested flow:
* if I'm not mistaken the e-mail template is the same one that is used for
the "forgot password" link, this is not ideal in our case because it would
be the first e-mail (first contact) that new users in our system would
get...
I agree that's less than ideal, but it's how it works atm as it's just a way
for an admin to initiate the reset password flow. Create a JIRA and we can fix it when/if
we get time.
* when I follow the flow that you suggested I always get redirected
to the
account page (/auth/realms/{realm}/account) after creating a password and I
wasn't able to figure out why (I would have expected to be redirected to
the default redirect URL, so to my application)
It doesn't know what app to use as you're initiating this flow from the admin
console. If it's done by clicking reset password during login it's done as part of
the login flow from your app so it knows what app to redirect to.
One option would be to provide an option in the admin console to select where to redirect
the user to. However, it can't login the user as part of the flow as the app is
required to check the state variable, which it can't as it didn't initiate the
flow.
Cheers!
Nils
