Self Service Password Reset This feature lets cloud only or managed users reset their password from office 365 portal with an alternative way of authenticating like an alternate phone number or email address.
Feature Requirements:
Self-Service Password reset is free for cloud users with office 365 business, no-profit or education plans.IT doesn’t work with Trial subscriptions.
If you are using On-premise Active Director and synching your users, then it requires a paid subscription to Azure AD Premium.
The feature is available in these subscriptions.
- Azure AD Premium P1
- Azure AD Premium P2
- Enterprise Mobility + Security E3
- Enterprise Mobility + Security E5
- Microsoft 365 E3
- Microsoft 365 E5
As I mentioned above that for cloud users it is free and for the on-premise user, you should have a paid subscription listed above. Technically, with Azure Premium you get Password write back feature which required by SSPR to write back passwords on -local AD when they initiate an SSPR request from office 365 portal.
