Reset-MgBetaUserAuthenticationMethodPassword

Module:

Microsoft.Graph.Beta.Users.Actions

Initiate a reset for the password associated with a password authentication method object. This can only be done by an administrator with appropriate permissions and can't be performed on a user's own account. To reset a user's password in in Azure AD B2C, use the Update user API operation and update the passwordProfile > forceChangePasswordNextSignIn object. This flow writes the new password to Microsoft Entra ID and pushes it to on-premises Active Directory if configured using password writeback. The admin can either provide a new password or have the system generate one. The user is prompted to change their password on their next sign in. This reset is a long-running operation and will return a Location header with a link where the caller can periodically check for the status of the reset operation.
