WVD Windows Desktop client - Multiple/Switch Accounts?

Are there plans to allow easy switching between diffrent Azure AD accounts in the Windows desktop client?


At the moment, I have to unsubscribe and subscribe to switch accounts (unless I am missing something?).

    This now exists. You can now add multiple accounts to both the WVD client and the Windows Store RD client.

      Christian_Pedersen jmh_7 This is not supported yet but certainly something we want to bring in a future release. Are you needing this functionality primarily for testing as an admin or do end users have 2 accounts?

        DavidBelanger for me it is both.

         

        We want to give "guest" users access to a hostpool in our tenant so that they can use a specific application. While actual guest users are not supported, this would be mean creating an account for them in our Azure AD to access the resource. Therefore there could be a case where they access hostpools in their own tenant, and in our tenant, therefore two different accounts needed. At the moment the easiest way I see for this is to set up different profiles in the browser (Edge/Chrome) and access via the web client, but open to suggestions.

         

        Thanks
