Reset Elasticsearch Deployment Passsword using API

[seizste (Stefan)]

Hello everyone,

could not find it in the ece api reference, but is there a way to reset the elastic users password using the api ?
Functionality should be the same as following instructions described here - https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-enterprise/current/ece-password-reset-elastic.html > Reset the password for the elastic user.

Looking Forward,
Stefan

It looks like it hasn't been ported across to v1 yet - there's still a few stragglers using the undocumented v0.1 endpoint. It should appear in v1 soon.

In the meantime you can hit (POST) to /api/v0.1/regions/ece-region/clusters/:cluster_id/_reset_password with no body and get in return (200)

{"ok":true,"elastic_username":"elastic","elastic_password":":PASSWORD"}
