Windows Hello for Business - W365 Cloud PC
Hello All,
We are currently attempting to use Yubikey USB-A and C devices for authentication. For Laptop authentication it works, but we are trying to implement this on a Windows 365 Cloud PC while signing into Windows App. Has anyone tried this method?
This is the device we are trying to use:

This is what i seen when i did my research:
High‑level architecture (important context)
On Windows 365 Cloud PCs:
- ✅ WHfB is PIN‑based (this is the supported model)
- ⚠️ Biometrics (face/fingerprint) are usually not available
- ✅ WHfB is user‑scoped, not just device‑scoped
- ✅ WHfB requires a healthy PRT first
- ❌ WHfB cannot provision if AzureAdPrt = NO
If PRT/WAM aren’t healthy, WHfB setup will never appear, even if policy is correct.
Any input, insight, or feedback is grreatly appreciated!!
