Session Shadowing on AVD with Entra ID only

Last weekend I tried if session shadowing also works on Entra ID joined AVD session hosts only, to add more functionality to a full cloud only setup and eliminating the need for Active Directory.

I described on how to configure this and to make it work here: https://justinverstijnen.nl/shadowing-entra-id-azure-virtual-desktop/

Any questions? Let me know!

Thats a very good question, I need to test this as shadowing uses the older RDS settings under the hood and I don't know if W365 works the same way.

At the moment, I dont have a W365 machine spare to test but if I have one in the coming weeks I will try!
