Hi @Roger Seekell , password changes only flow from Azure Ad to Azure AD Domain Services. Changes do not flow back from Azure AD Domain Services to Azure AD.
How to change password in Azure Active Directory Domain Services and sync back to Azure AD
Hello. We have on-prem AD, Azure AD, and we also have Azure AD DS.
Is it possible to change a user's password in Azure AD DS and have it write back to Azure AD?
I am an administrator in Azure AD DS, yet there are a lot of permissions I don't have on the AADDS Users OU, such as changing descriptions or resetting passwords. I even looked at effective permissions for my account on the AADDS Users OU, and I have a green check for Change Password, but I still cannot do it.
Is it even possible to change password on Azure AD DS and have it sync through Azure AD all the way back to on-prem AD? If so, how do I grant/delegate that permission? Thanks.

- How do I change a password for a synced account in Azure AD DS? Is that even possible? Is it possible with a cloud-only account?
- If I can change the password in Azure AD DS, will it sync back to Azure AD?
