Allow for customized error messages in Azure AD Conditional Access policies
Allow for an administrator to create customized error messages to replace the generic AAD conditional access "you do not meet the criteria." For example, if I have a conditional access policy that blocks access for Windows devices based on a specific criteria, I could display a custom error message that would offer links to support sites, or IT support #. In addition, allow for multiple custom error messages to be defined, and linked to specific policies that block access. For example, we could display a different error message on PC, iOS, or Android devices that are blocked via a conditional…

Just a quick update. This is still on the roadmap, but not work that has started. The comments here are useful as we start the design. Thanks -
RBAC for AAD
The Azure teams have done an awesome job implementing RBAC. I would love to have this same functionality (granular permissions + custom roles) for AAD itself.
Currently there's too many activities that only a global admin can do. RBAC would allow us to delegate appropriate activities without increasing our security attack surface.232 votesJust wanted to post another update that we are continuing to work on this, and will have more details in the near future.

Automate Seamless SSO Kerberos decryption key rollover AZUREADSSOACC
Currently to automate the Kerberos SSO decryption key rollover for AZUREADSSOACC , we would need to store domain admin and tenant global admin credentials in a script or scheduled task.
This is obviously not ideal. We currently having to perform the rollover task manually each month.
Please look at how this process could be improved for automation.
231 votesWe are currently working on an approach that will allow Tenant Admins to do key rollover from the Azure AD portal; without the need for PowerShell or scripting. This will be released within the next 4-6 months. Subsequently, we will release an update that will perform key rollover automatically every 30 days

You can remove directories by contacting the organization that owns the directory and asking them to remove you.
We can add the ability to hide them, if this is a popular request.

Add Japan region to data residency location of Azure AD B2C
Lots of Japanese customers would like to use Azure AD B2C. But they can not decide to adopt B2C because we do not have Japan region as data residency location.
217 votesWe are hoping to support more datacenters in the future, especially in the Asia/Pacific region, but it is not currently planned for the short term.

AzureAD Role Delegation to Groups
Currently in AzureAD msolroles can only be assigned to users and servicePrincipals using the add-msolRoleMember cmdlet. Groups cannot be a msol-roleMember - although the add-msolroleMember cmdlets' RoleMemberType Parameter can be set to Group. But we always get an exception which says that this value is invalid....
Usually we delegate access to resources using ActiveDirectory Groups instead of users, which makes the Management much easier. To achieve a Role Delegation to Groups we have to deploy a Powershell that synchronizes Group-Members with Role-Members of a specific role. This is a valid Workaround but a nasty one compared to a direct delegation…216 votesJust wanted to post another update that this is a high priority, but we do not have any details to announce yet.

AADB2C: Force password reset
Add the ability to force user's to reset password at next login. It would be ideal if this was available for both individual users as well as in bulk. This is necessary for situations such as credential leaks, etc.
212 votesWe have started the planning for this feature and hope to have a preview by the end of the calendar year. In the meantime, could you respond to aadb2cpreview@microsoft.com with the answers to the following questions:
- In which scenarios do you plan to force the user to change his/her password?
- What kind of information (if any) would you like to get back if the user goes through the reset flow?
- Do you currently or plan to track which users have reset their password? -

Support Remote Desktop Web Client HTML5 on Azure AD App Proxy
Microsoft doesn't support the Azure AD Application Proxy on RD WebClient (HTML5). Like this MFA and Condintional Access would be possible.
Another benefit is that HTML5 works on all Webbrowsers without downloading software.

We are starting investigation and development to make this integration happen. We will update you as we progress on the feature and when we have a release date. Thank you so much for your patience.
Send a note to aadapfeedback@microsoft.com if you have questions!
Thanks!

Azure AD B2C, How to Avoid / Validate, duplicate Sign up with Social Identity Providers
Hi, Assume, I sign up with Google 'siva@gmail.com', it creates a user in the tenant. I sign up with Facebook 'siva@gmail.com', it creates another user in the tenant. Also I went and Sign up using email account, for 'siva@gmail.com', now am finding 3 users with same email id. I see this is a duplicate accounts are getting created. Is there any way this can be validated & inform user in Azure AD B2C ?
193 votesThank you. We will examine the experience of duplicate sign ups across Identity providers. Would performing this check by using the email address be sufficient?
BTW, Linking multiple provider accounts to one user is in our roadmap and we’ve already achieved it in preview…
We look forward to your feedback

Azure Domain Services Support for LAPS

Azure AD B2C Data Residency in Australia

Support Azure AD domain join for Windows Server 2016
Microsoft should strongly consider implementing support for Azure AD join in future builds of Windows Server 2016. I how a couple of customers that have nearly finished the transition to all cloud and is left with a couple of servers due to legacy software. They are currently left with the option to deploy Azure AD Domain Services for supporting a couple (2-5) servers.
168 votesThanks for the feedback. We’re reviewing feasibility for this feature. No timelines yet, but this is on our roadmap.
Please share any additional feedback on this suggestion for us to review

B2C Support for client credential flow.
To enable APIs to use authentication from another application with separate security credentials (clientId+secret). Needed for APIs to make graph calls.
(This is not the same as on-behalf-of flow, which represents the ability to exchange an access token intended for one audience for an access token intended for a different audience)

MFA: remember device permanently (& remember per device, not per app)
Please:
1. Remove the 60-day (max) limit on remembering Office 365/Azure MFA authorisation for a device/app.
2. Make it so that MFA is remembered once per *device* (well, per user account per device), not once per app (for all Microsoft apps that authorise across all kinds of devices).Rationale: Having to refresh the MFA authorisation periodically does not add to security, because we already know that the app or device is trusted and if that changes (e.g. device is lost or stolen), the correct procedure to follow is for the admin to immediately revoke the authorisation for the device and/or…

Allow Conversion of AD Synced Accounts to "In Cloud Only"
Up until recently, we were able to convert a user which was AD Synced to a cloud account by moving it to an OU in AD which was not synced.
After the next sync, Office 365 would move it into the deleted folder. If you recover it, it goes into a cloud account. As of a few weeks ago, Microsoft disabled this.Looking at countless threads around the internet, and speaking with representatives from Microsoft Office 365 support, everyone is frustrated with this change, and wants it changed back to the way it was.

group naming policy using extension attributes
Please implement additional functionality to allow the use of Extension Attributes as part of a Group Naming Policy. This is required as the Department name is too large and many organisations have a shortened department code which they apply via an Extension Attribute. Using a long department name in a Group Naming POlicy creates names that are too long to be useful, but using a shortened department code plus group name means that the group can be easily identified and attributed to a department without cluttering the name space.
e.g. Information and Communication Technology has a short code of ICT…
