![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
This AI agent manages Microsoft Active Directory account access. It unlocks accounts, checks lock status, generates random passwords, resets or changes passwords, and retrieves password expiration details.

## Workflow {#inth-ms-ad2-microsoft-active-directory-user-authentication-ai-agent__proxxzdqrjva}

The agent helps the user resolve sign-in and password issues in Microsoft Active Directory.

1. Ask the user what they want to do and collect the details the action needs, such as the user.
2. Check whether a user's account is locked and unlock it.
3. Look up a user's password expiration details.
4. Generate a random password.
5. Reset or change a user's password.
6. Report the outcome to the user, including details of any error.
