This blog post is more of a reminder for myself as much as anything. I had a need to mark some service accounts in Azure AD so that their passwords dont expire.
The aim was that we had a few service accounts used in a couple of places and we wanted to have a controlled process to change their passwords.
To do this we did the following:
- Create a group to store associate all of the service accounts for our project for easy management
- Add all of the service accounts to that group
- Run a script which will check every member of the group and to change the password policy so the password doesnt expire
I had a look online and couldnt really find a resource showing how to do this which didnt use the old Office 365 mso powershell functionality so I thought id share this for anyone else who might find it useful.
Below is the script I used and usually run each time we might need a new service account where we want more granular control of the changing of passwords for service accounts.
