AD Groups in Application Owners
Would be great to be able to add groups to application owners in AD instead of only users. Scenario is to use on-prem AD synced with Azure to keep management of application roles/groups/etc on-prem for cloud hosted solutions.
Thanks!

I agree, this would be an important feature to properly manage access to Azure apps as we create more in the future. It's hard for me to believe it wasn't already included.

+1 for this, would be extremely helpful as we roll out more Azure apps for SSO.

Critical for enterprise needs. Without this feature, app owners could potentially still have access after leaving the organization. Further, it reduces the amount of access auditing for departments to have a single point of adding/removing access for multiple apps.

Support for AD Groups as Application Owners is very important for us to implement governance controls.

This would be great to have. For all other resources, we use AD-groups to abstract ownerships from the resource itself.

I believe this is support if you have any other AD version then "Free".

This functionality is critical for businesses and organizations where a team of people manage an application.

+1, we use this to integrate Jenkins for Subscription admin and Automation in Azure; it would be great to allow Apps to be owned by Groups, so that everyone on our team would be able to do things like rotate keys or debug integration issues

Also need groups allowed as group owners.

We definitely need this, because that's how we're assigning Azure roles (along with how we do things on-prem)
