Hi Experts,

I had given a requirement from client, that i had to create a user and his password in weblogic console but when user login in BI Analytics for the first time he can reset or change his password.

    Hi,

    Well ... if your client (or you for him) read the doc about the embedded LDAP in Weblogic will find out it's not providing these options as it's not a full standard LDAP as an Active Directory etc.

    So you can't set that kind of rules saying "require the user to change password at first login".

    Even changing password isn't available for the end user itself without using Weblogic Console.

    There is a workaround to let the user change the password: https://www.rittmanmead.com/blog/2011/10/changing-your-password-in-obiee-11g/

    But you can't set a rule to force the user to do it at the first login or at any point in time.

    For that you configure Weblogic to use an external authentication provider taking care of all these things (and ideally already storing users credentials for other things so the user can use the same user/password).
