indigestio Posted February 1, 2022 Posted February 1, 2022 Hey, Currently for a custom application I require to call the lost password functionality of Invision. I can't find anything about sending a recovery request call to the forums (without an HTTP client). Is there something like this available with invision https://website.com/forums/index.php?/lostpassword/email=test@hotmail.com Or e.g. website.com/forums/recovery/email=test@hotmail.com Thanks in advance
Solution Jim M Posted February 1, 2022 Solution Posted February 1, 2022 Sorry, this is not something which is available within our software. This would require a customization itself or you can request it for a future release in our Feature Suggestion forum. SeNioR- and indigestio 2

Do you know if it is possible to whitelist an IP to not use captcha? It seems as if whitelisting an IP in spam-prevention still shows a captcha upon password recovery (preventing a successful http client). Only alternative would be to disable captcha for the functionality I require - which I would not want to do...
Marc Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 There is no way in which to whitelist against using recaptcha at present indigestio and SeNioR- 2
Randy Calvert Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 It sounds like you're trying to do password reset activities through screen scraping. It might be better to look at doing this through the REST API. It would not be subject to CAPTCHA requests, etc. It's also designed to be interacted with in a programmatic way. indigestio and SeNioR- 2

I looked into all the REST API calls and currently don't see any calls of requesting a password reset. (https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api/index/). Or do you mean something else?
indigestio Posted February 10, 2022 Author Posted February 10, 2022 Bump, is it possible with the REST API or not? Thanks in advance!
Marc Posted February 10, 2022 Posted February 10, 2022 We cannot assist with development as part of our standard support, however there wouldnt be any way to request a password reset on that. You can see everything available on the REST API here https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api SeNioR- 1
