Clearpass: Not able to retreive Guest Device password via Email

  • 1.  Clearpass: Not able to retreive Guest Device password via Email

    Posted Jan 21, 2022 07:31 AM

    I am adding a Guest Device (for MPSK) via the API of Clearpass (https://<clearpass_url>/device, also password is added via this call.
    After that i am performing another call to send the information to the user (https://clearpass_url>/guest/{guest_id}/sendreceipt/smtp
    I receive an email about that the device is added but the password is not in the email.

    When i am going to the Guest Module of Clearpass (GUI), and go to the recently added device, and send an email from there, then i receive an email with the password.

    Does someone know how to do this via the API?

    I have entered this request and had a blinking light above my head :).
    API Operator didn't have enough permissions. Give him the Super Administrator permissions solved the issue.

    Make sure that the operator profile that you used has the Guest / View Passwords privilege:
    Operators with the View Passwords privilege may display the passwords for guest accounts
