Thanks for your reply.

 

It's true it doesn't say it never gets supported however, this has been the status now for around 2 years if I'm not mistaken. I did find that websocket support is in preview, however this is since 2018 already.

 

Hoping someone from Pernille-Eskebo can reply to this.

Another two years roll around - it does look like "Features (Eventlogs, PowerShell and Remote Desktop Services) in the Windows Admin Center (WAC) do not work through Microsoft Entra application proxy" is a WONTFIX.

    I actually found a workaround using the new (in preview) Global Secure Access with the Private Access profile. I now can deploy the GSA client to my intune enrolled devices and simply port forward anything needed which does not have any issue with the websockets.

    No idea if this works for you but I did a successfull test with this!
