Azure WVD - Office 365 Perpetual license on Base Image

Question

Hi,

I understand that on Azure, Office license are on per user subscription-based.

If I were to deploy Office on WVD with Windows Multi-session, are there anyway to input perpetual license on the base image?

Thank you

Hi,
Office 365 only available for subscription plan, there is no perpetual license.
If you want to deploy Office on Windows Virtual Desktop, you need to use Shared Computer Activation(SCA) and this kind of activation mode only available for subscription plan.
You can refer to this support article about how to deploy with SharedComputerLicensing property in XML:
