Is MFA required to be disabled for URL-Based load tests?

A D365 solution requires performance testing and test users can be created for it. I know JMeter can authenticate a user to login and simulate actions, as long as MFA is disabled.

Does the disabled MFA requirement still hold true for Azure URL-Based Load Testing? I'm assuming it works in the same manor, but would just like confirmation.

    Yes, you can add requests to a URL-based load test in Azure Load Testing without disabling MFA.

    If you are experiencing issues with MFA during URL-based load tests, it might be helpful to check the following:

    1. Ensure that the user account used for the load test has the necessary permissions to perform the test.
    2. Verify that the correct authentication method is being used for the load test.
