Reset wordpress password on AWS lightsail

Question

I’ve used wp all in one plugin to migrate my site to aws lightsail. However, it also migrated the old credentials which was owned by the previous webhosting company. I’m not able to obtain those credentials. In this case, how can I reset my user and password to my new Wordpress? My lightsail ssh has a bitanami interface on the console, I suppose that is how I should go about it but I'm exactly sure about the steps.

You should use wp cli for resetting password.

• First install wp cli
• Run wp user list --role=administrator to get administrator user id
• Run wp user update 1 --user_pass=newpass to reset password.
