public async Task ChangePassword(ChangePwdViewModel usermodel)
        {           
            var userId = User.FindFirstValue(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier);
            var user = await _userManager.FindByIdAsync(userId);            
            var result = await _userManager.ChangePasswordAsync(user, usermodel.oldPassword, usermodel.newPassword);
            if (!result.Succeeded)
            {
                //throw exception......
            }
            return Ok();
        }

public class ChangePwdViewModel
    {  
        [DataType(DataType.Password), Required(ErrorMessage ="Old Password Required")]
        public string oldPassword { get; set; }

        [DataType(DataType.Password), Required(ErrorMessage ="New Password Required")]
        public string newPassword { get; set; }
    }

Note : here UserId i am retrieving from Current logged User.
