executeData |
Description: Children: |
flagSkipAction |
Description: Now that MPF supports try/catch error handling (through and elements), there is little need to specify flagSkipAction. This node was originally introduced to support error handling for Active Directory Provider::Create Object. For example, a Create Object call ordinarily fails if the user already exists. To override this behavior, the request can include a flagIgnoreAlreadyExistsError node, which instructs Create Object to return a flagSkipAction node. Subsequent calls pass this node to prevent further operations on the object. In the case of User Set Password, the presence of flagSkipAction prevents accidental resets of the user's password.

User Set Password is a wrapper for IADsUser::SetPassword.
