Project 2: Self Service Password Reset Set Up

New IAM Lab Completed: Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR) with Microsoft Entra ID

-Assigned Microsoft 365 E5 Developer license to enable full capability
-Configured authentication methods (mobile + email)
-Simulated reset scenarios using the SSPR portal

Troubleshooting Win:
Initially encountered the “Not Capable” issue, which was resolved by assigning the correct license and registering the user’s authentication methods.
Real-world lesson: even basic IAM functionality requires thorough setup validation.
