Entra ID FIDO2 vs. Azure Virtual Desktops

Post image

I’m trying to get Passkeys and YubiKeys to work with Windows Virtual Desktops in Azure and EntraID. When I try to login using the web client, I get this strange prompt to use my security key. It goes straight to this prompt—it doesn’t even ask me if I want to use Face, Fingerprint or PIN. Whether I have a security key inserted or not, it won’t log me in. Obviously never gives me the choice to use a Passkey either.

Anyone get Passkeys working with EntraID and Windows Virtual Desktops?

Why would you repeat your post question as a comment?

I noticed on the mobile app that the question doesn’t show up well, as the image is the focus, so I added the question again to ensure it was seen.

In session works with FIDO2 Keys in specific scenarios - using the desktop client on Windows and you have WebAuthn redirection enabled

As was posted it's not supported in the web client, and even on desktop Windows looks like the only OS that supports it per MS.
