Our authentication is through Office 365/Azure Entra ID on the Public Cloud; how do we use that for authenticating to Azure GovCloud? All of the documentation seems to think we want to login to an application (Webapp) in the GovCloud but we are just looking to synchronize our Entra ID users and credentials across both the Public Cloud and the GovCloud so our users don't have to maintain 2 separate login systems. (We use Public Cloud logins for all of our Office 365 and workstation logins, and for Azure DevOps logins. We want to be able to login to manage our Azure GovCloud systems using the same login credentials.

    Hello @Robin Wilson , to sync Entra ID users accounts and credentials to one Azure commercial tenant and to one Azure Gov tenant you will need to source them from Active Directory trough Entra Connect. For more details on how to and considerations take a look to Multiple Microsoft Entra tenants.
