    Hi,

    Has anyone encounter before this error message when creating users using impctl platform commands. 

    Error Message encountered : platform_add_unprivileged_os_user: Invalid password (exit status: 7)

    The commands entered in the CLI -> impctl platform user create --name='admin3' --full-name='admin3' --password='webco123'

    Looking forward to hear from this.

    Hi Raymond,

    To create a user, use the following syntax:  impctl platform user create --name=admin3 --full-name=admin3 --password=webco123

    Hope this helps your question.
