How long is a temporary passwort valid?

Question

Hello all,

if I reset a user password via Azure AD, how long is the new passwort valid? Is it the same duration as for all passwords?
Ist there a way, to make the temporary passwort after a reset valid for only 24h?

Cheers
Erik

Hello @Erik Kohler ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer your question.

To answer your question, the temporary password never expires. The next time the user signs in, the password will still work, regardless how much time has passed since the temporary password was generated.
