MC1290834: Teams Rooms sign-in failures after password reset from Pro Management Portal

Password resets via Teams Pro Management Portal may cause Teams Rooms devices to fail sign-in due to a forced password change prompt they cannot complete, leaving devices in a CannotSignIn state. Avoid resetting these passwords in PMP and manually remediate affected devices if needed.

[Introduction]

We're investigating an issue where password resets performed in the Teams Pro Management Portal (PMP) may cause Teams Rooms devices to fail sign-in. A recent change in password reset behavior is the likely root cause and may prevent Teams Rooms devices from completing sign-in.

    [How this affects your organization:]

    Who is affected:

    • Organizations using Teams Pro Management Portal (PMP) to manage Teams Rooms resource accounts

    What will happen:

    • Password resets initiated in PMP may trigger a change password at next sign-in requirement on the account.
    • Teams Rooms devices cannot complete interactive password change prompts.
    • Affected devices enter a CannotSignIn state.
    • Devices may remain signed out without automatic recovery until manually remediated.
    • This issue primarily affects Teams Rooms resource accounts.

    [What you can do to prepare:]

    • Avoid resetting Teams Rooms resource account passwords through the Pro Management Portal.
    • If a password reset is required:
      • Verify device sign-in immediately after the reset
      • Manually remediate any devices that remain in a signed-out state
    • Inform your helpdesk or support teams of this issue to reduce troubleshooting time
