I have several database connections under Files & Connections in FME server. The passwords of these databases change frequently and currently I’m updating them manually. 

Is there any way to automate updating the credentials of these database connections under FME server ? Any API available ?

 

Thanks in advance

If I inspect the calls from the UI I can see that there are calls going to an undocumented REST endpoint
 

The body looks pretty straight forward (haven’t included as it contains sensitive information re the connection) so you should be able to easily build the calls to update the specific connection
