Password Reset Flow

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4
Hello all! this is my first post, sorry if I'm missing something. 

I'm trying to create a flow that reset users passwords as my company will soon start sharing user credentials so the idea is that every two hours or on a specified time, the password of that user reset. 

For that I've build an app registration with the following API permissions:

 
Ignore the device ones because I'm also trying a different thing. I even added them as delegated and app permissions. 

I haven't created any type of role (the only thing I did, was add the user I want to perform the flow inside the app)

According to this information, I should only need the UserAuthenticationMethod.ReadWrite.All permission: passwordAuthenticationMethod: resetPassword - Microsoft Graph beta | Microsoft Learn

Keep in mind that first of all, I'm trying all of this on my Global Admin user (doesn't work) and the idea is to have it working on a User Admin account. 

I keep getting this error:



This is my HTTP request:
and this is my Access Token information:

Please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong or if someone could help me. Thanks!

    Hey @FLMike I've also read that post and there's no answer there. I have the same permissions and nothing.

    I had the same issue and the solution that worked for me was while retrieving the bearer token I used an account with Authenticator Administrator permissions although Global Admin should work as well. So I obtained the token using the user that has Authenticator admin/ global admin permissions and then for password reset I used regular user account.
