Many of you probably already use Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) B2B collaboration to work closely with your external partners. Since we launched Azure AD B2B capabilities a year ago, more than 800,000 organizations have used Azure AD B2B to collaborate with their partners, adding 8 million guest user accounts. Pretty amazing right?!
One of the most frequent pieces of feedback we’ve received is that you need B2B collaboration to work for all your apps, even if you have a hybrid configuration where you have apps on-premises and apps in the cloud. For example, you might already use B2B collaboration to invite your partners to access apps in Azure or Office 365, using their external credentials. But, you have high-value on-premises apps that your organization is not ready to move to the cloud just yet.
Today, we're excited to let you know that we’re releasing a public preview that lets you give Azure AD B2B users access to on-premises apps, without needing to manually create on-prem accounts for them!
