RDWeb and HTML5 Client

Hi,

I am using RD Web and the new HTML5 web client. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-web-client-admin) I am interested to know if anyone has been able to get this working with Single Sign On or some form of credential delegation (Sending Windows Credentials) to the web front end (../webclient/index.html)? I am looking for a way to eliminate the need to enter a username and password.

Further to this, the Azure AD App Proxy (AAD-AP) integration looks like a useful intergration (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/app-proxy/application-proxy-config-sso-how-to), however from what I understand even if you set this up, you still need to manually authenticate to the RDWeb portal, therefore you do need to authenticate twice and the SSO component mentioned in the configuration article above is specific to the App Proxy itself.

Just wondering if anyone has been able to achieve SSO using either native the native RDWeb portal (HTML5) or the combination of AAD-AP and RDWeb (HTML5)?

I am fairly sure this is not yet supported, however hoping to start a conversation with the community, in the hope that this feature may be integrated at some point.
