Silently configure OneDrive using Windows 10 or domain credentials
Does anybody know, what microsoft means with the primary Windows account in the setting "Silently configure OneDrive using the primary Windows account"?
The name of that setting was "Silently configure OneDrive using Windows 10 or domain credentials" - so do they still support using domain credentials?
I'm not able to get this setting working - we use Azure AD Connect to put our local domain users to Azure AD and Office365.

Manuel_Martinez either should work whether it's a federated domain or managed. There are separate steps for federated vs managed, but the same process through azure ad connect hybrid setup wizard.

Does anybody know if we need an Azure AD Sync with an ADFS infrastructure or if Azure AD Sync with Password Sync will work as well?

in GPO explanation:
If you enable this setting, users who are signed in on the PC with the primary Windows account (the account used to join the PC to the domain) can set up the sync client without entering the credentials for the account. Users will still be shown One Drive Setup so they can select folders to sync and change the location of their One Drive folder.
So only admin, who have joined PC to domain can set up Onedrive silently???

Hello,
you need to run GPRESULT with admin rights. Launch a command prompt with administrator rights, and in the cmd window launch your GPRESULT command (including the option "/scope computer" if you only want to report on the GPO affecting the computer)

I would like to know this too. We don't have ADFS, will this work without it?

Hi,
anyone have the idea why the GPO not applied on the registry?
I tried to run gpresult /H result.html and seems the gpo applied to the machine. but not applied in registry.

However this is only internal, external this is disabled
The users use a different UPN Suffix than the Domain Name.
The email address is populated, When I start Onedrive with:
"C:\Program Files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" odopen://sync?useremail=<email>
The email address is not populated, When I start Onedrive with:
%LocalAppdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe odopen://sync?useremail=<email>
However, still the users need to hit the Login button. Anyone stuck, feel free to duplicate my settings and try to fix the Login automation.

I'm on the exact same page you'r stuck at.
Our config:
ADFS internal, Netscaler as WAP external
Internal clients have recieve internal ADFS IP from DNS
STS is in trusted zone
I got the population working by starting:
"C:\Program Files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" odopen://sync?useremail=<email>
because using %LocalAppdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\OneDrive.exe odopen://sync?useremail=<email> does not populate
Still users are required to hit the login button.... that's where i'm stuck
