Primarily platformed on Azure question
Hello All, I have a question about certification policy 1000.1 - see here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/marketplace/certification-policies#10001-value-proposition-and-offer-requirements ...

Microsoftcavalier67 thanks for reaching out! Further down in the same section of the policy you can find this info:
"For your SaaS offer to be listed on AppSource, it must meet these criteria:
- Integrate with or extend a Microsoft service or product and your offer must describe how it does so.
- Accept single sign-on from work accounts from any company or organization that has Azure Active Directory (AAD). More information is at Get AppSource certified for Azure Active Directory."
Does that help answer your question?
justinroyal Thank you for the fast reply! I understand that part, but I could use a little more clarity. It's not clear to me if that is in addition to the policy at the top or if (being only on AppSource), I can disregard the primarily platformed on Azure part. Much appreciated in advance.

cavalier67 the same restriction on AppSource is not specified because Teams solutions don't need to be platformed on Azure.
For offers that extend or integrate with the MS cloud there is not a requirement for Azure platforming. It is worth noting that such an offer is not eligible for IP Cosell or for MACC decrement.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
