Can you manage computers (Computer Management) in Azure AD like you can in regular AD?

In regular AD, from a Windows Server, I can go into AD, right click on a Computer and select Manage. I can then do things like I can in Computer Management on that computer itself.

Is that possible to do on Azure AD?

    Hi @Jim · Thank you for reaching out.

    Management of the devices in Azure AD is not similar to On-premises AD. If you want to manage Azure AD Registered devices, you would require Microsoft Intune. Please refer to Available device actions for the action that you can perform on Azure AD Registered/Joined along with Intune Enrolled devices.
