Hi Jose

When it comes to user credentials, it needs to be treated a bit
differently. What you probably have to do, is to basically include the full
payload of the old usercredentials with the new password. It does not
support matching on anything else than "user": { "id": "..." } which is
required. Please be aware that in 2.21, this field has been renamed
userInfo. I know its a bit weird that you have to point to the same user
that you are updating, but this is how the model currently is.

The code / username issue, in the usercredentials class the getCode
property has been overriden to be username, there is no real reason for it
(I think), but thats the reason you see this.
