IOS mail profiles and conditional access
The current mail profile we push to our IOS phones is still username/password and oauth disabled. I also have a CA policy to block legacy authentication by blocking exchange activesync client and...
Thanks I did find that our current mail profile does show up as activesync... I figured it was.
We aren't moving to outlook because change is hard 🙂 I'd prefer to use it, but its a big change and getting contacts to work well on the iphone is not the best still. You can get the outlook contacts to show in the iphone contacts app. But you can sync back, if I create a contact in the iphone contacts it doesn't sync back to outlook then back to exchange.

Hello Jason,
you can make the transition smoother with an App configuration policy to pre-configure the Outlook App for the user, so he/she only has to enter the password on first start.
When the configuration policy is in place, you can push the Outlook app through company portal app. Just add it to the iOS Apps in Endpoint Manager and set the assignment to "required" to all users or a group.
With these two steps can easily deploy Outlook side by side with the native Mail app and witch to ModernAuth.
Contacts can be an issue for some people (I have some of them in my org too) but with proper training they will get used to it and maintain their contacts in Outlook.
