I am working on mobile app, with MAM flow. Set protection policy for Edge and my app, added conditional access.
I want to achieve MAM flow. Is it possible to achieve MAM flow, without doing MSAL authentication.

    Hi, no, a full MAM flow isn’t possible without Azure AD authentication. Intune needs the user’s AAD identity to apply and enforce MAM policies, and that identity normally comes through MSAL or the broker apps (Authenticator / Company Portal). Without an AAD sign-in, the Intune SDK has no user context, so MAM simply won’t activate. You don’t necessarily have to use the MSAL library itself, but some form of AAD authentication is required.
