Hello Experts,
Is there any way to obtain a documentum users password?. The passwords are stored in the docbase (inline password).
Hi,
you mean decrypt an inline password stored in dm_user object?
I know that IDfClient has en encryptPassword() method, and a decryptText() method as well. DFC References state that this method isn't supported, though.
What exactly do you need to do? You know that a superuser can retrieve tickets for any given user?

We plan to create several repositories that will send files to each other. I want to use IDF copy operation for that. And it requires user and password in order to create a session in the target repository. So I want to create a user with minimum permissions in each docbase and the other docbases will use that users credentials and will create a session.
So far everything is ok.
But the problem is that if we change the users password I want to decrypt the new password and send the information to other repositories automatically. I am not sure mybe that is not reqired, mybe it is possible to create a session with the encrypted password as well. Please geve some suggetions.
Why dont you use replication feature in DCTM?
It is another headache. I have developed several custom activites (modules) that works perfectly and does what I want, so why I should use something else when they lets me to do everything.Also since they are part of Process Builder I can reuse them again and agin and design multiple workflows, make data exchange with other docbases whenever it is needed. They provide a lot of opportunities.

- You can create session using install owner and then use assume() to assume identity of the user.
