    Hi,

    take a look into the following article: 

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/azuread/set-azureaduserpassword?view=azureadps-2.0

    By setting the Password don´t forget to use secure string, otherwise you will run into an error.

    e.g.:

    -Password (ConvertTo-SecureString -String "USER-PASSWORD" -Force –AsPlainText)

    regards, pat

    hello,

    thank you but when i put in:

    Set-AzureADUserPassword -ObjectId "**************" -Password $Hello12345

    i get:

    Set-AzureADUserPassword : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Password' because it is null.

    Can you give me an example how to?

    greetings, martijn

    here an example for an oneliner as in a single case:

    Set-AzureADUserPassword -password (ConvertTo-SecureString -String "USER-PASSWORD" -Force –AsPlainText)

    For script-use you can do for example this:

    $Password =  (ConvertTo-SecureString -String "USER-PASSWORD" -Force –AsPlainText)

    Set-AzureADUserPassword -password $password

    regards, pat

    1 made a script with:

    #Collect details of the User for whom password to be reset
    $Username = Read-Host -Prompt "Enter the username"
    #Convert the default password to a Secure String
    $SecPaswd = "Password" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
    #Reset the Password
    Set-AzureADUserPassword -ObjectId "$Username@domain.com" -Password $SecPaswd -ForceChangePasswordNextLogin $true

    but after i put in the user name then i get the error:

    Set-AzureADUserPassword -ObjectId "$Username@domainname.com" -Passwo ...

    Hi,

    Thanks for your response.

    -ObjectId: Specifies the ID of an object.

    Please use object ID to replace "$Username@domain.com" . But I found in "get-azureaduser" cmdlet -objectid can accept upn.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/azuread/get-azureaduser?view=azureadps-2.0
