Setting the password hint text in the Edge UI

Note: The conf_apigee-base_apigee.passwordpolicy.pwdhint
property is available in Edge version 4.16.09.04 and later.

By default, when a user changes password in the Edge UI, a dialog box appears that contains
fields to set the password and text describing the password requirements:

You can configure the text by setting the conf_apigee-base_apigee.passwordpolicy.pwdhint
property in the /<inst_root>/apigee/customer/application/ui.properties
file.

To set this property:

Open the ui.properties file
in an editor. If the file does not exist, create it::> vi
/<inst_root>/apigee/customer/application/ui.properties

Set conf_apigee-base_apigee.passwordpolicy.pwdhint. For
example, set conf_apigee-base_apigee.passwordpolicy.pwdhint
as:conf_apigee-base_apigee.passwordpolicy.pwdhint="Password
must be 13 characters long and contain at least on special character."

Save your changes.

Make sure the properties file is owned by the 'apigee' user:>
chown apigee:apigee /<inst_root>/apigee/customer/application/ui.properties
