There is a function that I miss for Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD). For printer redirect the only control we have is on or off. Nothing in between. We use Microsoft Universal Print and, in some cases local USB printer for our local desktop printing need. For AVD we have on prem network printers solution. Because of the personal sensitivity of the documents Universal print is not allowed on AVD. But those who have a local USB printer can use it on AVD. Her is where the problem is. Printer redirect will redirect all the local printer ques. Universal printer ques and the local USB printer ques. What I wish fore is a function to whitelist/blacklist the type of printer that is allowed to redirect. Like only redirect local USB printers and not network/cloud printer. Is this a function that can be added? I have an Design Change Request case whit Microsoft on this, but need upvotes to start the work. Please upvote this so we can get more control over printer redirect in AVD. ... View more

All of our external customers have their own AAD / Entra ID and wish to not manage multiple identities. As we present our applications via AVD, it requires them to have a separate identity in our tenant currently. AVD should support guest accounts from another tenant to be able to sign in.    Currently, per the documentation and per the ticket I just worked with Microsoft support:   Azure Virtual Desktop doesn't support external identities, including guest accounts or business-to-business (B2B) identities. Whether you're serving internal commercial purposes or external users with Azure Virtual Desktop, you'll need to create and manage identities for those users yourself.   Please continue development to allow guest accounts that have been invited into a tenant to sign in to AVD machines. Thanks! ... View more

Dear product group,   a feature that is key for security departments when using AVD / WVD is Screen Capture Protection.

It would be nice if we could get deep links to specific AVD sessions to quickly open their machines on the AVD web client or the desktop app. The deep links should be available via the web client's view (copy link button), be available via the RDS feed, or be constructed easily with workspace/hostpool names in the feed. ...

When building new Azure Virtual Desktop hosts via the AVD portal, if you select an OS disk size for the host that is anything other than the default 128GB, the host is provisioned with a 128GB disk and then resized/upgraded as part of the VM's build process. The problem with this is that the OS volume is still the default 128GB and needs to be manually extended after the host has been built.   This detracts from the otherwise impressively polished process of provisioning AVD hosts in the Azure portal, where it's clear a lot of automation already takes place as the VM is created and set up for AVD.   I have not been able to find mention of the need to extend the OS Volume after provisioning in the Azure Virtual Desktop documentation, nor was it clear that this would be required when selecting 256GB OS Disk size during host creation.   If the host were created with a 256GB OS Disk from the beginning (rather than upsizing) I anticipate this would solve the need to extend the OS volume manually afterward. Alternatively, if its possible to automate extending the OS volume to utilise the full disk size after it has been resized that would also address the problem ... View more

With RDP line of apps for IOS and Mac, we need to have an option to share configurations for added desktops between the devices. I now use to control over 60 clients with RDP and need to configure each of them over and over agian on MacBook, Mac or iPad. There should be an easy solution to keep configs of all those devices in iCloud and use on different devices with same AppleID. ... View more

The new preview version of the AVD insights configuration workbook for the AMA agent only recognizes data collection rules that are created in a resource group called "AzureMonitor-DataCollectionRules" and does not recognize any DCR that was created elsewhere.   We would like to have the option to use other resource groups and DCR. Hope this can be adjusted during the preview. ... View more

As a VM host machine administrator, I often have to do maintenance on these machine using Microsoft Remote Desktop Beta (Mac). That's 5 host machines and around 25 individual VMs. Opening all of these is always quite cumbersome, I can chain-double click around 3-4 connections at one time, then me clicking spree is interrupted by the first of these VMs opening up in a new desktop space. What would be very useful is a way to open all connections at once, or at least in some sort of queue that needs much less manual effort on our part. There are multiple methods I can think of: 1) Let the user CMD-select multiple VMs (or SHIFT-select) and then have the "Connect" command available in the right-click popup menu - which it currently isn't Connect can only called if a single VM is selected. 2) Another method. Right-Click on a group allows users to connect to ALL VMs in that group. Currently the group is only a container for the VMs with no actual functionality. 3) And lastly, let's call it the queen of multi-start options: Option to be able to assign each VM to a startup-list. All VMs in a startup list can then be started simulaneously. Startup lists are managed inside their own sub-window panel (next to PCs and Workspaces). And new startup lists can be added using the "+" Menu: Add new startup list. ... View more

A few months back the column labelled "Active Sessions" in the AVD admin console changed to show total session per session host rather when you drill into the host pool and list the session hosts. See below examples of current inconsistent data at present   This request/idea is   1) to fix the active session column to show the active session count again   2) improve the session host list to include three columns to show "total sessions on host", "active sessions on host" and "disconnected sessions on host" to mirror the data available at host pool summary level - all of those are useful bits of information in their own right to an admin in different circumstances when looking at the session usage/state per host for example when looking at load levels and when initiating maintenance activities and diagnosing connectivity issues like are a very high % of session disconnected on a given host when they aren't on others say.     Example of current Web UI   Host pool overview screen shows accross the entire host pool "Total sessions", "Active sessions" and "Disconnected sessions"     When you then click onto the "Total machines" count or "Session hosts" in the left menu the list of session hosts in the host pool shows a column titled "Active sessions" has a count of what is "Total sessions" per the definition on the previous screen rather than the "Active sessions" per host i.e. the aggregate of active and disconnected sessions.       If you then drill down into a given host in the example above there is 1 session that is "active" and 6 that are "disconnected"       ...
