Support for Intune Microsoft 365 Apps

In App Portal / App Broker 2023 R1, support was added for deploying software to Windows 10 devices using Windows Line of Business Apps (.msi and .msix) and Windows App (Win32). In this release, support for Microsoft 365 Apps has been added.

All the capabilities that exist with Windows Line of Business Apps and Windows App (Win32) are available with the Microsoft 365 Apps type as well.

Note:Microsoft Intune has a limitation of not being able to provide the domain that a device is part of. Due to this, App Portal does not currently support license governance capabilities such as license reservation, My Apps, and license reclamation, when Intune is the source of Device and User sync.
