Azure Virtual Desktop for Guest User / B2b Identity
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!
Enable Screen Capture Protection via Host Pool settings
Dear product group, a feature that is key for security departments when using AVD / WVD is Screen Capture Protection. It would be super helpful to be able to enable / disabled the feature from within the Host Pool properties for the increased administrative experience. Thank you!
Business to Business (B2B)
Hi, At this moment B2B isn't supported for Azure Virtual Desktop: The user must be sourced from the same Active Directory that's connected to Azure AD. Azure Virtual Desktop does not support B2B or MSA accounts. The UPN you use to subscribe to Azure Virtual Desktop must exist in the Active Directory domain the VM is joined to. It would be nice to create a B2B feature, so our end users can use AVD resources from our third party suppliers (DaaS/SaaS suppliers). This way will increase the user experience. I think B2B is the future, it's already present in other Azure resources like Teams, Office 365, OneDrive, Sharepoint etc. Discuss this already with Pedro Magrico.Bug with Mac Remote Desktop 10.9.0, cannot remote in without manually logging in first
Now when I try to Remote Desktop into a vm that is on a domain, it will not let me connect because of a security error. This used to connect just fine. The only way to get around this is to manually log in. Once a user has logged into the computer, I can then remote into it like normal. Every time the vm is restarted though, I once again have to manually login to get remote access. The error I receive: We couldn't connect to the remote PC because of a security error. If this keeps happening, contact your network administrator for assistance. Error code: 0x1807
Remote Desktop App Lost Connection Data
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, bei meiner Remote Desktop App verliere ich bei jedem Start mein Workspace. Der Fehler trat das erste mal vor knapp 4 Wochen auf. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit den Cache am Mac zu löschen oder eine andere Alternative um mich zu meinem Cloud PC zu verbinden? Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Claudia Ruhrmann
Support external identities
Supporting external identities would improve the 'users outside your organization' use case https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/remote-app-streaming/architecture-recs#deploying-azure-virtual-desktop-for-users-outside-your-organization Users outside the organization will already have their own identity, either in their own AAD (Entra) tenant or with another provider. Azure Virtual Desktop should support external identities because: as an application developer, managing their identity is not something that adds unique value; as the end user, I don't want to remember another password.
SSO for windows 365 Remote Desktop iOS app
Why? Why? Why? iOS Remote Desktop app will use mothers authentication to launch windows 365 cloud pc, but will not pass credentials to the machine? how can we go passwordless without this? Why is this not a priority? cloud PCs should be built with SSO and passwordless setup from the start. How can i push this to a sec op team when we’ve adopted a passwordless strategy??
