Change Password with firebase cloud functions

I have found documents (Manage Users ** Firebase Official docs) on how to change a password but not how to use a cloud function. The user.updatePassword(newPassword).then(() => { does not work for a cloud function. --> At lease that i am aware of... My Goal if possible, is to pass the users userid and new password in a similar fashion to the above and have it change. Any examples or firebase doc's i might have missed would be great. Cheers

Inside Cloud Function you're using the Firebase Admin SDK to access Firebase Authentication, so you can update the user through that to set their password. From that link:

getAuth()
  .updateUser(uid, {
    password: 'newPassword',
  })
