Azure AD Join - Supported Configurations
I assume thats an unsupported configuration, as no Profile Management (FSLogix) is implemented in that scenario. If you are using Pooled Desktops without FSLogix, every user that connects to a desktop gets a local profile for each Desktop.
This way you are having inconsitent user profiles as your users will sometimes be connected to different Session Hosts and wouldn't be able to access the data within their local user profile on the previous Session Host they were connected to, initially.
Depending on the applications you plan to install, they will save data within the user profile.
Assuming that you have synced users within your Azure AD, you would need to implement FSLogix to be in a supported scenario, having your users saving data within their FSLogix profile containers.

That would be the following supported configuration mentioned in the Microsoft Docs (Azure AD-joined):
- Personal or pooled desktops with FSLogix user profiles with synced users from Active Directory.
At least thats my understanding on why that scenario isn't supported.
- jmann3627Sep 01, 2022Copper ContributorThank you for such a detailed response, this is much clearer to me now. With our particular scenario we would only ever provision a single AVD Session Host per Customer, so technically Local User Profiles would be feasible? At least in the short-term until Microsoft fully support Azure AD Authentication for FSLogix Profiles without the need for AD DS.
