Cypher Password Complexity

Is it possible to change the password complexity when requesting a password from Cypher?

Thanks

Hi, at present that isn’t possible.

If specifc characters in the passwords are causing issues, you might considering adding it to the ideas section of this forum.

For example, it would seem that a mount/key format of password/{length}/{charsToAvoid}/yourPasswordKey could be appropriate.

Anything added in the ideas section is voted on and considered by the product team.

Thanks Ollie, I was after removing special characters for example not necessarily the length, is that possible?
Thanks

Hi there

This is possible in both UI and via API. You can specify the length of the password to be created

Here is a link to API docs:

It’s the same in the UI, you suffix the mount with the required length, then your password
