Unable to connect to the target WiFi network without entering a password on Android BOYD device

Question

Wants to create a WiFi Profile for Android Enterprise Personally Owned Work Profile devices so that it will connect to the target WiFi network automatically without asking for password once user enroll their personal Android device in Intune.

Have created one profile selecting WiFi template under Android Enterprise Personally-Owned Work Profile (WiFi Type as Basic) and assigned it to one of our test user group. Post assignment, it shows success in Intune but when user try to connect that network it ask for passowrd. SSID name is also correct. Not sure how this will authenticate user as there is no option for Preshared key in profile like iOS.

Can someone please guide if I am missing any prerequisites. Thanks

@Mohammed Shaikh, Thanks for posting in Q&A. If you don't want to use password to do the WiFI authentication, then you can consider to user certificate.

You can configure your WiFI to authenticate with certificate, deploy the certificate via Intune and deploy the Enterprise WiFi profile to see if it works:
