Office 365 Tip–Change an Office 365 password to never expire

Sometimes you don’t want a password of an Office 365 user to expire e.g. when you use it as a system account. You can’t do this using the Office 365 Admin center but it is quite easy using the Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell.

1. Connect to Office 365 using your Office 365 global admin credentials by running the following cmdlet: Connect-MsolService
2. Set the password of one user to never expire, run the following cmdlet: Set-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName <serviceaccount@contoso.com> -PasswordNeverExpires $true
