    • To disable the self-service password reset functionality for the entire tenancy.

    To disable the password reset functionality, which is redundant if you have Microsoft 365 federated  to RM Unify, please perform the following:

    1. Log on to Microsoft 365 as a global administrator and navigate to the 'Microsoft 365 admin center'.
    2. From the left-hand side, under Settings, select Org settings.
    3. In the right-hand side pane, under 'Security & privacy', click the 'Self-service password reset' link.
    4. In the 'Azure Active Directory admin center' window, on the left-hand side, select Users, 'Password reset'.
    5. Change the 'Self service password reset enabled' option to None.
    6. Click Save.
    7. Note the information box advising that this setting only applies to end users. M365 admins are always enabled for self-service password reset. 
    • To enable the self-service password reset functionality for only selected users in your tenancy. 

    Use this procedure to allow self-service password reset functionality for only the unfederated users in your Microsoft 365 tenancy:

    1. Log on as a global admin and access the 'Microsoft 365 admin center'.
    2. From 'Teams & groups', create a security group called SSPR Enabled.
    3. From Users, bulk select the users you want to add to the security group.
    4. From the toolbar, click the three dots and select 'Manage groups'.
    5. In 'Group memberships', type SSPR Enabled.
    6. Tick the group and click 'Save changes'.
    7. Navigate to the 'Password reset properties' page in Azure Active Directory.
    8. Click Selected, then search for and select the SSPR Enabled group created above.
    9. Click 'Save changes'.

    Good Luck and Happy Learning
