krn.SessionChangePassword

This job changes the password of the user currently logged into the working session. Unlike mng.SetUserAttributes, the user must know the old password — the call is therefore suited for "self-service" password changes in the client.

This job is not listed in the official enaio® kernel engine overview. This description was reconstructed from the call code of the enaio-jobs-custom template.
