Password Reset

The resetPassword mutation is used to reset a user's password using a reset code sent to their email. This process ensures that only the user with access to the registered email can change the password.

Mutation: resetPassword​

Schema:​

resetPassword(
  email: String!,
  code: String!,
  newPassword: String!
): String!

Parameters​

  • email (String): The user's email address. This field is mandatory.
  • code (String): The 6-digit reset code sent to the user's email. This field is mandatory.
  • newPassword (String): The new password for the user's account. This field is mandatory.

Return​

The mutation returns a string indicating the result of the password reset attempt.

  • "Success": Indicates that the password has been successfully reset.
  • "Failed": Indicates that there was an error in processing the request, such as an incorrect reset code or an issue with the new password.

Example Mutation​

The following is an example of how to use the resetPassword mutation to reset a user's password:

mutation {
  resetPassword(
    email: "demouser@nyyu.io",
    code: "123456",
    newPassword: "392fj209AL!LA@M"
  )
}

In this example, the mutation attempts to reset the password for the user with the email address demouser@nyyu.io using the reset code 123456 and the new password 392fj209AL!LA@M. The return value will indicate whether the password reset was successful or if there was an error.
