POST `/v1/wordpress/sites/{siteId}/credentials/rotate`

Set a new password on one WordPress administrator, shown once.

Authentication

Send an API key as a bearer token. The key must carry the sites.view permission; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.

This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.

Try it

Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.

curl -X POST https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/wordpress/sites/{siteId}/credentials/rotate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "user_id": <string> }'

Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console

Details

Generates a 24-character password, applies it to the named WordPress administrator, and returns it in this response and **nowhere else** — it is not stored, not written to the snapshot, and not put in the audit record, which says a rotation happened and never what to. ⛔ A user id that is not an administrator of this site is `422`. Without that check the endpoint would reset any WordPress account's password through a door labelled *administrators*. Requires `sites.view` **and** `sites.panel_access`.
