Description

Times to times there is a need to set password never expire for Azure AD user account as it is a service account. It need to applications that still doesn't support latest authentication and authorisation mechanisms. Say, services which requires for LDAP bindings through Azure Active Directory Domain Services.

It can be easily done by PowerShell command:

Set-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName <user ID> -PasswordNeverExpires $true

By the way, there is a need to perform that kind of task through TF scripts during automatic deployment of service.

New or Affected Resource(s)

  password            = "SecretP@sswd99!"
  password_expiration  ="True|False"
}

Hello,

Any news?

Hi @lzadjsf,

Thank you for opening this issue so we can track this feature. As that property is currently not exposed but the SDK this is not on our current roadmap to implement anytime soon.

[katbyte]

This might be possible via the additional properties map.. 🤔

@katbyte What do you mean by the additionnal properties map? It does interest me.

This is supported by the Azure AD Graph API. I have logged an issue requesting SDK support.

Azure/azure-sdk-for-go#9851

@manicminer for this one would you rather have an attribute called password_policies which is a string that can be set to DisableStrongPassword, DisablePasswordExpiration or DisablePasswordExpiration, DisableStrongPassword

Or would you prefer to have two Boolean attributes that we then use to construct the above string to send to the API?

@alexwilcox9 Given this is an enumeration string with exclusivity rules, it would probably be best implemented as booleans in the provider so we can validate them nicely 👍
