Walkthrough: Workplace Join to an Android device
Applies To: Azure Active Directory
Join your device with Workplace Join
Note
Android workplace join requires Azure Active Directory Device Registration Service. In order to enforce conditional device policies on-premises, Directory Synchronization Tool (DirSync) must be deployed with device object write-back option enabled. At the present time, device write-back to Active Directory from Azure Active Directory can take up-to 3 hours. As such, users must wait for 3 hours to access on-premises web applications, after creating a work account. For more information about deploying Azure Active Directory Device Registration service, see, Azure Active Directory Device Registration Service Overview
