Hi Christian,
You can sync computer to Azure AD by using ADConnect and update the config under Device options ‘Hybrid AD join’. Then place their computer in Syncing OU.
Hope this helps!

I am aware of the ability to sync what I am trying to get clarity on is can I sync computers on a different domain. in my OP i mentioned that I am trying to sync domain computers from another domain to my AAD tenant. This other Domain is internal to me what would be the process to get them in AAD.
Would creating a trust between our domain allow me to see the computer objects and then sync them.

You should be able to sync two domains to one tenant, this how my test environment setup:
Abc.local + jwz.local —> trust relation between two domains.
Sync hybrid joined to one tenant using one ADconnect. It should be under Customize Synchronization Options->Connect Directories->Add Directory.
Let me know if you have any questions and sorry about confusion earlier.- Christian TaverasMar 12, 2020Iron Contributor
Moe_Kinani That sheds light on this now!! Now with a trust in place do the computer objects in Domain 1 show up in Domain 2 (this domain is sync;d to Azure) ?

As there can only be one AAD Connect, this is not possible.
