Hi,
Can AzureAD dynamic groups be synced to AD using Azure AD connect writeback functionality?
I cannot find a clear statement in the documentation that it is or isn't possible.

    The only groups that can be written back at this time are Microsoft 365 groups, also known as Unified groups. I believe dynamic membership M365 groups will work with this, and the documentation does not mention anything about them being ineligible.

    Hi,

    With Azure AD Connect you can sync only objects created in On Prem AD to Azure AD and then you can write back some properties like passwords.

    You cannot sync objects created in Azure AD.

    Hope this helps!
