    Hi JamesCumberton,

     

    Technically, you can. In our organization we wanted to force sign-out users when their accounts get disabled or passwords are reset/changed, and so instead of waiting for the Azure refresh token to expire we solved the situation by running the following cmdlet when that action occurs:

      Set-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName $User -StsRefreshTokensValidFrom (get-date)
     
    The key is, you'll need an interceptor to trigger this action when the condition occurs. If your domain is federated, it's your your on-premise AD should have a interceptor that can catch when password change/password expiry/account disable happens, and then execute the MSOL cmdlet to revoke the Azure token (or like how we have done, place the script in an Azure runbook, create a webhook, and have the AD interceptor call the Webhook and pass the username).
