Notes

The _authentication object exposes functionality associated with the customer’s ability to log in to the store. All properties of the _authentication object are optional. When the _authentication object is not supplied with an update request, then the existing customer password remains the same.

Updating Passwords

To manually update a customer password in the same way as the control panel, supply a value for the password field:

{
    "_authentication": {
        "password": "12w69Y217PYR96J"
    }
}

Confirming Passwords

An additional optional password_confirmation field can also be sent, providing password confirmation as a service:

{
    "_authentication": {
       "password": "12w69Y217PYR96J",
       "password_confirmation": "12w69Y217PYR96J"
    }
}

Forcing Password Resets

To force a customer to reset their password upon their next login attempt, give the force_reset field a value of true, as shown here:

{
    "_authentication": {
        "force_reset": true
    }
}
