MembershipUser.GetPassword Method

  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Web.Security
Assembly:
System.Web.dll
Assembly:
System.Web.ApplicationServices.dll

Gets the password for the membership user from the membership data store.

Overloads

GetPassword()

Gets the password for the membership user from the membership data store.
GetPassword(String)

Gets the password for the membership user from the membership data store.

GetPassword()

Gets the password for the membership user from the membership data store.

public:
 virtual System::String ^ GetPassword();
public virtual string GetPassword ();
abstract member GetPassword : unit -> string
override this.GetPassword : unit -> string
Public Overridable Function GetPassword () As String

Returns

String

The password for the membership user.

Exceptions

PlatformNotSupportedException

This method is not available. This can occur if the application targets the .NET Framework 4 Client Profile. To prevent this exception, override the method, or change the application to target the full version of the .NET Framework.

Examples

The following code example calls the GetPassword method to retrieve the password for a specified user name. The password is sent to the user's email address. Note that RequiresQuestionAndAnswer is assumed to be false.

Note

Returning a password in clear text using email is not recommended for sites that require a high level of security. For high-security sites, it is recommended that you return passwords using encryption, such as SSL.

Important

This example contains a text box that accepts user input, which is a potential security threat. By default, ASP.NET Web pages validate that user input does not include script or HTML elements. For more information, see Script Exploits Overview.

Remarks

GetPassword calls the MembershipProvider.GetPassword method of the membership provider referenced by the ProviderName property to retrieve the password for the membership from the membership data store.

If EnablePasswordRetrieval is false, the membership provider will return an exception. If the provider supports passwords with a PasswordFormat of Hashed, you will be unable to retrieve the password for the membership user and should consider making use of the ResetPassword method when a user has forgotten their password.

Note

A ConfigurationException will be thrown if enablePasswordRetrieval is set to true and passwordFormat is set to Hashed in the Web.config file for the ASP.NET application.

If RequiresQuestionAndAnswer is true, you must use the GetPassword overload that takes a password answer as a parameter and supply the password answer for the membership user. If a password answer is required and an incorrect password answer is supplied, a MembershipPasswordException is thrown by the membership provider.
