Hi guys

I think I am missing something here.

Say I want to give a user an option to reset a password.

There is a method for this

User.ResetPasswordAsync

but it requires a user.

How can I get a user object if I am not logged in?

Thanks

Hello Slava,

We think you have found a bug and we have escalated this to Engineering for investigation and resolution.

We will update you when we know more.

This is the DM app, correct?

Thanks Billy

Yes, this is the DM app.

I would suspect this method would be static.

Any progress on the issue?

Hi there

Is there a workaround for this issue?

Thanks
Slava

Hello Slava,

As for a workaround, the password can be reset from the Kinvey Console for any user.  That may not be convenient but it will work.

The status of the fix for this problem is that the fix has been completed and it should be included in the next release as well which should also be within the next two weeks and possibly sooner. We will let you know if something changes.

Thanks for the response.

I have already implemented the "Reset password" button, but I have to wait for the fix before I release the app. 

Do you have a Beta channel?
