M365 Apps for Enterprise - Shared Activation
Hello all,
I'm hoping someone can share some insight to help me out here. Recently we started receiving calls that users who log in to our conference room PCs, and Office files from OneDrive are read-only and there is a warning icon near their name at the top of the window. In looking at this we realized that Shared Activation was not enabled for these machines. We have since gone ahead and enabled Shared Activation via group policy.
Now that Shared Activation is configured, it seems like every user who logs in to those conference room PCs is asked to sign in to authenticate to activate. This is a cumbersome process for our end users.
We've got Azure AD Connect configured in our environment with Password Hash Sync and the Enable SSO checkbox checked.
My expectation is that with Azure AD SSO enabled, the Office Apps would just SSO to activate similar to the way all of the other (non-shared) PCs do it. Is there something I am missing?
Thanks
Steve
