Need information about trustedapp and @PROXYUSER@ accounts

[NishanthShaga]

Need information on below two accounts on why/when/who uses these system accounts which are generated during deployment?

1. trustedapp
2. @PROXYUSER@ - This account status is disabled.

Can we reset or know password for these accounts? 

Can these accounts accessed by humans manually on any system or application?

Thanks for your help and support.

Hi Kevin,

I would like to know if we can reset or know the password for these accounts?

Nishanth Shaga‌,

The @PROXYUSER@ user and trustedapp accounts are administrative accounts that are used internally for Self-Service operations and for the API connection between the web tier and Authentication Manager primary, respectively.

@PROXYUSER@ does not actually log in, as the account is disabled by default and the password is randomly generated.  Never change the password for this account.
 

The trustedapp user cannot be removed, disabled or renamed. 
 

The passwords for the @PROXYUSER@ and trustedapp accounts are created dynamically when Quick Setup is completed on the Authentication Manager server.  These passwords are unique to each Authentication Manager environment.  Since they are generated by the system, they are extraordinarily complex and are never read or input during the use of the system. 

Regards,

Erica

It's not possible to view the passwords and should not be changed.
