Testing a Password Policy

Test a password policy in an identity domain in IAM.

After you create a password policy, you can test the criteria for the policy to validate that the password policy has been set.

  1. Open the navigation menu and click Identity & Security. Under Identity, click Domains.
  2. Click the name of the identity domain that you want to work in. You might need to change the compartment to find the domain that you want. Then, click Settings.
  3. Click Password policy.
  4. Click the name of the password policy to test.
  5. On the details page, click Test password policy.
  6. In the Test password panel, click the box, and then enter a test password.

    After you enter the first character, the gray question mark associated with each criterion turns into either a red X mark or a green check mark. As the password meets each criterion for the policy, the associated red X mark changes to a green check mark. After all criteria are met, all red X marks appear as green check marks.

  7. When you're finished, click Close.
