Hi together, i want to change the users password my way. Is there a way to do this? The changePassword requires the oldPassword which is unknown in case of password reset.

Summary

- Developers want to reset passwords without using the appwrite email-secret workflow. - Suggested solution is to use the updatePassword function on the server side with the user's ID and a new password. The old password is not needed in case of a password reset.

You can use the updatePassword function on the server side

User result = await users.updatePassword(
    userId: '<USER_ID>',
    password: '',
);
