Changing user password for PaaS SQL Server instance

Permissions

Requires ALTER ANY LOGIN permission.

If the login that is being changed is a member of the sysadmin fixed server role or a grantee of CONTROL SERVER permission, also requires CONTROL SERVER permission when making the following changes:

  • Resetting the password without supplying the old password.
  • Changing the login name.
  • Enabling or disabling the login.
  • Mapping the login to a different credential.

A principal can change the password for its own login.
