8.2 Azure AD Password Complexity

Passwords must adhere to the Azure AD password requirements. A user cannot be added if the specified password does not meet these requirements.

Complexities and requirements in Azure AD password policies are different from complexities and requirements in eDirectory. If you plan to use password synchronization, create and use passwords that match the rules of complexity in both Azure AD and eDirectory.

For information about Azure AD password complexity requirements, see “Password must meet complexity requirements”.

For information about managing passwords in eDirectory, see the Password Management Administration Guide.

HINT:Make the password policies for both Identity Vault and Azure AD similar to each other as you can. In a lab environment, disable strong-password functionality on Azure AD before installing the Azure AD driver. After the driver is working properly, make sure that passwords used in eDirectory and Azure AD satisfy the rules of complexity for both systems. Then re-enable strong-password functionality on Azure AD.
