This article will walk you through the process of configuring single sign-on (SSO) using Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) authentication for Azure Virtual Desktop (preview). When you enable SSO, you can use passwordless authentication and third-party Identity Providers that federate with Azure AD to sign in to your Azure Virtual Desktop and Remote Applications. When enabled, this feature provides a single sign-on experience when authenticating to the session host and configures the session to provide single sign-on to Azure AD based resources inside the session.

### Disconnection when the session is locked

When SSO is enabled, the Windows sign-in is done using an Azure AD authentication token, which provides support for passwordless authentication to Windows. The Windows lock screen in the remote session doesn't support Azure AD authentication tokens or passwordless authentication methods like FIDO keys. This would prevent users from being able to unlock their session. For this reason, when the session is locked, either through user action or system policy, the session is disconnected and an informational message is provided to the user.

The lack of support for these authentication methods mean that users can't unlock their screens in a remote session. When you try to lock a remote session, either through user action or system policy, the session is instead disconnected and the service sends a message to the user explaining they've been disconnected.
