office 365 password resets

[sted]

is there any way to force a user to change their password. i dont want to reset it for them and then have them change it again. I just want to be able to do like in active directory tick the change password at next signin box. i can see some powershell scripts but im not sure i want to try random untested powershell script on a live domain (and recently i dont seem able to get powershell to connect to azure or run commands wen it is). anyone got a link to any simple do this type instructions as my googlefu is letting me down

Assuming they are cloud accounts and not synced from on prem

I know this refers never expire but also gives the opposite guidance which is what you want

not synced no

 

its just a one time thing (or a possible) ive been asked if there is a way to force everyone to change them at next logon. they are currently set to dont expire (that can now be done on the web gui). so i dont want to set a password expiration policy as such just want to be able to force users to change passwords if needed without me having to reset them to temp ones dish those out and then have users type in a new one

I think the answer is 'no; (*) but what I was proposing is changing the policy so passwords do expire (and then change back)

 

* = if you want the answer to a question, just get someone else to post a reply that's wrong and you'll suddenly get a flood, so either way I'm helping you out

lol setting the password policy to 14 days is the best ive come up with (dosent go any lower) wonder if that is backdated so if a password is over 14 days old reset now or not but dont see a way of testing that
