Hi,
i would like to sync user photos from Azure AD to Windows 10 user profile picture. We have Hybrid AD.
So user uploads his/her photo to O365 and i see it in O365 and Azure AD.
In Windows 10 Settings, i see that computer is connected to AD Domain and has Work or school account.
In Azure AD Connect - i see that thumbnailphoto attribute is checked.
So should i set some additional settings in Azure AD Connect or use some script from powershell?
We do not Have Azure Premium Plan 1, it is free Azure that goes with Office 365 Business subscription.
Best regards,
Aleksandr

i saw this documents, but it does not explain how to sync from Azure to Windows 10 profile. I only saw how to sync to Azure from AD and not vice-versa.

Where did you find anything that supports this? And your link is to page that was published in 2017.
We use Windows 10 2004 version already :)

2021-01-29T06:57:17.793+00:00 So, i have solved my issue.
It was issue of computer and Azure AD. In Azure - computers where registered in Azure, not Hybrid Joined - and that what solved my issue.
i had to add in AADConnect - configure device options (link https://blog.alschneiter.com/2018/08/16/configure-device-registration-with-azure-ad-connect/)
after that - waited some time and when computer became Hybrid Joined, after some time photo now is showing in Windows profile.
