    We managed to achieve this with a separate Conditional access policy which excluded any hybrid joined device or compliant device.  Coupling this with an app protection policy to prevent any potential data leakage via copy paste etc for teams means that we have users with unmanaged devices accessing teams but not being able to potentially leak data/ access documents on devices outside of the organisation.

     

    Users and groups 

    specify your scope here of whom you wish for this policy to apply to.

     

    Cloud apps or actions 

    Include only sharepoint online 

     

    Conditions 

     Device platform 

    Any device - This is so it affects if a user tries to access sharepoint content via any unmanaged device.

    Locations 

    Any location  - did not include trusted locations due to not wanting an unauthorized device being able to access this inside the corporate network.

    Client apps 

    Include both browser and mobile apps and desktop clients. only tick box excluded was apply policy only to supported platforms. 

    Device state 

    Include all device state but exclude compliant and hybrid joined devices from this policy

    Access controls

    block access

     

    Cheers
