Windows 10 image with Microsoft 365 Apps for Azure Virtual Desktop available in the Azure Marketplace

Question

Hi everyone,

Is there an image with the following characteristics published by Microsoft in the Azure Marketplace?

• Windows 10, version 22H2
• with Microsoft 365 Apps
• update channel for Microsoft 365 Apps is Monthly Enterprise Channel
• for Azure Virtual Desktop

I am aware that a similar image with URN MicrosoftWindowsDesktop:office-365:win10-22h2-avd-m365:19045.4046.240213 is available. However, in the case of this image, the update channel for Microsoft 365 Apps is Current Channel. In the case of this image, the update channel for Microsoft 365 Apps is in fact Monthly Enterprise Channel.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello, @Flavius Butnariu !

Where can I find a Microsoft published image for AVD with Microsoft 365?

This was more difficult to track down than I thought it would be. I ultimately reached out to the Azure Virtual Desktop group and confirmed that the Office 365 image you found is the AVD image that is published by Microsoft (no other options for update channel are listed):

It looks like there are some configuration values for Monthly Enterprise Channel on the Microsoft 365 Apps side of things for a cloud deployment which might give you what you are after but you would want to follow up with Microsoft 365 Apps as they would be able to confirm the correct workflow:
