Add guest user to Windows Virtual Desktop app pool
- Jun 12, 2019
ghonyme : Yes, unfortunately we do not support guest users yet in Windows Virtual Desktops. Users must be sourced from the Azure AD that you specify for your Windows Virtual Desktop tenant.
I was wondering on this we got to Azure Domains but have WVD in a separate domain the guest users can not be added as a appgroupuser hoping this is something they are actively working on Christian_Montoya
tommy_barnes : We understand the ask of supporting Azure AD B2B, but unfortunately it's a little challenging at the moment because the user and their credentials are not known from the "inviting" directory.
We're looking at it, but don't expect to have a solution with Azure AD B2B any time soon.

bhushangawale : No update, and no timelines. I would not expect this feature anytime this calendar year (CY20).

Marc98052 : Unfortunately, this is not available at the moment. With Azure AD B2B, the inviting directory never receives the password hash and the on-prem AD never recognizes the user.
Currently, you'll have to create an account for that guest user so that the user is recognized in both AD and Azure AD.
We have taken this feature request (supporting Azure AD B2B )and have it in our backlog, but no specific ETA right now.

Christian_Montoya Is there any other way for a user from a different AAD to log in to a host pool in my AAD tenant? Is B2B / Guest account the only way?
