I can sign on to IBM cloud and used to click on "Visit App URL" and Node red would start. Now it is asking for username and password. I think I remember the username but not my password. How do I request a password reset?
You don't request a reset, the credentials you created when you set up the Node-RED instance can be over ridden by setting the following environment variables in the IBM Cloud console:
NODE_RED_USERNAME
NODE_RED_PASSWORD

I am inside the SAP Business Application Studio, inside the terminal, when I put the CF login command I enter my credentials and this appears
Authenticating...
{"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"User authentication failed: Unauthorized"}
Could you please help me
The solution on my side is to use the --sso option.
cf login --sso -a https://api.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com
Afterwards you will be prompted to get a passcode from this url: https://login.cf.us10.hana.ondemand.com/passcode
However, for me this failed several times.
The key is to use alternative identity provider on the login screen
and enter sap.ids as provider when you already have an SAP Universal login
Sadly, this does not work when using trial version in API endpoint https://api.cf.us10-001.hana.ondemand.com . I already opened a support request.
My question is basically the same as this question SoftLayer API OpenIdConnect Reset Password.
Once SoftLayer users are linked to IBM Bluemix users, the softlayer API can no longer be used to reset user passwords.
The only answer to the previous question indicates that "a bluemix api" must be used.
I've been searching for such an api but I'm not finding much, a million links for API design and connect on Bluemix but nothing for resetting the password in an automated fashion.
Can anyone point me to an API can can be used to reset or change the password for SoftLayer IBMid linked users?
Thanks!
Update:
I continue to search for a solution, I've downloaded and installed the BlueMix CLI and the Cloud Foundry CLI cf.
The bluemix CLI doesn't seem to have any password functionality, cf has a user password function but after prompting for Current Password and New and Confirm, it reports that current password doesn't match, which leads me to believe that the CF user functions are not tied to the IBMid open id server. (makes sense, just wanted to make sure and rule it out as an option)
I have created a cloudant DB in bluemix dedicated. But it didn't give me credentials. It provides me with a link to launch the admin portal, which works fine. But clearly not very useful without credentials to use with code...
You should bind the service to an application. Doing that you will be able to see the credentials in the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable. You can find its value within the application dashboard, clicking on "Environment Variables" on the left.
You will also find the credentials clicking on the "Service Credentials" button that you can find on the service instance panel (again in the application dashboard).
Your dedicated environment may look a bit different that the public Bluemix dashboard, but when I click on the tile that shows my cloudant service, it takes me to a page with a menu on the left with the option "Service Credentials" once I choose that the window shows a button to "Add Credentials".

Please address the problem to Bluemix support using the following mail: id#bluemix.net. This team will assist you on this issue. Thanks.
Same problem here. But I realized that I already have registered in Bluemix.
So, right under "Already have an IBM ID?" there is: "Already signed up for Bluemix? Log in".
This "Log in" link points to login page which, after entering my credentials, it redirects to https://console.ng.bluemix.net/?direct=classic. I don't know what this argument "?direct=classic" means, but the page won't show. So I removed it and everything is working fine.
I am trying to connect to Bluemix from Eclipse using this url : https://api.ng.bluemix.net
I entered my Bluemix id and password but it said wrong email or password. I do not know what was wrong since I was able to use both from my Bluemix console?
What happens when you select the "Validate Account" button? I see the following message displayed when I try to validate:
Did you have account on site:console.ng.bluemix.net?
