Known Issues

Control Center User Passwords
Starting with version 6.18 you can no longer manually set a "recover" password when adding a new Control Center user. For existing users, you're allowed to change the password via the /cc/api/rpUser API call. However, this endpoint isn't working correctly in 6.18 and needs to be fixed in a subsequent release. Please contact HYPR Support if you need more information.
