Best way to access Windows 365 Cloud PC from Mac?
Looking to find the best way to access a Windows 365 Cloud PC from a Mac. Clearly, I can access it by logging into the browser and running it there, but is there any way to use the Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac app to make the connection more "native" to the Mac OS environment? Any other thoughts would be welcomed as well. Thank you,

Hi northamerican!
We surfaced your question during today's episode of AMA: Windows in the Cloud. Please see the panel's answer at around 13:10.
- 2nikonCopper ContributorRemote Desktop for Mac works well with Windows 365 - we have lots of users using it. last release had a time zone bug that became apparent during daylight savings time change a month ago - but other than that it works well. Teams also works well with that client.
- northamericanCopper ContributorGood to know. How do you set up the connection to the Cloud PC from the Mac Remote Desktop Client? I know it's seamless with the Windows Remote Desktop Client, but I can't see to figure out how to load/initiate the connection from the Mac version?
