Keycloak 21 Missing ability to execute-actions-email through UI (Reset Password email)

1

As part of our flows we occasionally reset users e-mails through the Web UI.
In previous versions there was an option to reset users passwords which would send a reset password e-mail - and allow an expiry.

In Keycloak 21.0.2 I cannot see this option anymore?
Is this still possible? Am I just missing it?

I’m running 21.0.2 and still see that dialog by going to the user, clicking the Credentials tab and clicking Credential reset.

Hi xgp,

This is what that screen looks like for me.

and if I select Set Password I get:

No option to initiate a password reset that sends the e-mail link for the user to complete.

I see two states when I click on the Credentials tab.

  1. When it’s empty, there is a Credential reset link:

  2. When there are credentials, there is a Credential reset button at the top right:

I think your problem is that user is coming from a federation source (I’m guessing by the Provided by column), and you can’t reset credentials when that is the case.

Yer I’m using Active Directory… that hasn’t been a problem in previous versions?
My screenshot in the first post was from my instances using the same federation.

:man_shrugging:

I don’t know why it’s not there anymore. Might be worth filing a bug with the Keycloak team: Issues · keycloak/keycloak · GitHub

Yes good point didn’t even think of github…

I think this covers it already:

I just checked it here (running 21.1.1) with an LDAP federation and a custom federation provider. In both cases I can see the “Credential Reset” button.

Yes I can confirm I just updated to 21.1.1 and it is working in this version.
