|
=== Description
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This command is intended for use only during the initial configuration of
|
||
|
|
{xpack}. It uses the
|
||
|
|
{xpack-ref}/setting-up-authentication.html#bootstrap-elastic-passwords[`elastic` bootstrap password]
|
||
|
|
to run user management API requests. After you set a password for the `elastic`
|
||
|
|
user, the bootstrap password is no longer active and you cannot use this command.
|
||
|
|
Instead, you can change passwords by using the *Management > Users* UI in {kib}
|
||
|
|
or the <<security-api-change-password,Change Password API>>.
