It can be done in the Ambari Portal itself or via the Ambari API. Go to the
Admin section and there should be an option to edit users there.
On the API, a PUT call to the user record should let you update it:
PUT /api/v1/users/admin
{
"Users": {
"user_name": $desired_username,
"old_password": $old_password,
"password": $new_password
}
}
This is easily done with the Python ambari client I wrote, if you're using
Python 2.7 (still need to add support for other versions). It's probably also
easy using the Groovy client if you're on the JVM, but I don't know the syntax
for it.

client.users(user_name).update(old_password=old_password,
password=new_password, user_name=user_name)
