      Hi, It is possible to set a user password that never expires. it is being used by a client application so there are no human users involved.

      On the Edit user screen, the change password value is set to "Do not change password".

        Passwords don’t expire unless you configure the expiration (max age) in the password policy. So by default your password will never expire.

          When the password policy is enabled.
          There is no option on a user to bypass it

              If you needed to, you could always build an API integration (the User Update API lets you reset passwords, or you could initiate a Change Password Request) into your application for a specific user.
