Microsoft O365 Auto Login

I want to set up auto-login for the O365 desktop application. When a user logs in to an on-premises AD-joined device, the O365 application should automatically log in with their AAD credentials. I have an AAD subscription, and user sign-in is configured with password hash synchronization. Additionally, I have enabled SSO on the Azure AD Connect application. Please note that the end-user devices are not Azure AD-joined.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply,

    • SSO is enabled and configured with "password hash synchronization".
    • Manual Credential Manager configuration is not possible, because there is 100+ workstations are need to configure ( Any alternate ways to do this? such as any PowerShell script some thing like that?)

    Take this:

     

    • Ensure SSO is Enabled: Since you've already enabled SSO on the Azure AD Connect application, make sure it's configured correctly. 
    • Configure Credential Manager: Ensure that the Windows Credential Manager is set up to store and automatically use the credentials for Office applications. You can do this by:
      • Opening Control Panel > User Accounts > Credential Manager.
      • Adding the credentials for Office applications under Windows Credentials.
    • Remove Existing Credentials: If users are currently prompted to log in manually, you might need to remove any existing credentials stored in the Credential Manager. This can be done by:
      • Signing out of Office applications.
      • Removing any stored credentials in the Credential Manager.
      • Restarting the computer and signing back into Office applications with the correct credentials.
