Update Edge user's username or password

When you download the Edge site installer, a dedicated user account is created in Collibra Data Intelligence Platform. This user always has "Edge" as the first name and the "Edge's site name" as the last name.

A user will be created for each Edge site. This user is deleted when you delete the Edge site.

Note The Edge user account must have the Connect Edge to Collibra global permission.

Run the following command:

Note 
  • The commands below provide both password and username. If you want to only update one, you can remove the other when running the command. For example:
    ./edgecli config dgc --pass <Password123!>
  • When resetting the password, follow the steps in our Set or reset a user password article. The only non-alphanumeric characters accepted for passwords are: !, $, %, &,(, ), *, +, ,, -, ., /, :, ;, <, =, >, ?, @, [, ], ^, _, {, |, }, ~.
    For more information about the default password requirements, go to the Password settings.
  • For Edge sites installed on a bundled k3s cluster:
    Copy
    sudo ./edgecli config dgc --pass <password> --url <dgc url> --user <username>
  • For edge sites installed on a managed Kubernetes cluster:
    Copy
    ./edgecli config dgc --pass <password> --url <dgc url> --user <username> -n <my-namespace>
    Note If your Edge site is installed on a dedicated cluster via the Edge CLI method and it does not have a custom namespace, you can remove -n <my-namespace> from the command.
