Windows 10: Can I use the same Google Play account for Microsoft Intune and Airwatch?

Can I use only one Google Play account for Microsoft Intune and Airwatch? This question came to me in a migration scenario that we will have to execute. I didn't want the applications to lose the current link they have, so as not to generate other problems. Thank you Dionizio* Moved from Community Center

Enrolling Android Device in Intune - Google Account?

Hi,

I'm looking for some advice on the best practice for setting up an an Android device in Microsoft Intune. I understand that enrolling an Android device requires you to download the Company Store app from the Play Store (Guide found here:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/intune-user-help/enroll-your-device-in-intune-android ) . As you need a Google account to access the Play Store how is this possible if you are enrolling a company device? This will probably be the same for Apple devices.
What Apple account should be used to access the App store?

I'm sure that encouraging device users to use their own accounts (Google/Apple) is not good security practice.

An advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

 

Enrolling Android Device in Intune - Google Account?

Sorry but this isn't very helpful since part of an Android device's configuration occurs prior to downloading the Company Portal (Intune) app from the Google Play store.

As the OP highlighted, a Google account is necessary to enable Google Services and access the Play Store.

The original question remains, what is best practice for setting up an Android phone when asked for a Google account?

Should admins just create a dummy Google account to use for Google Play services?

 

Enrolling Android Device in Intune - Google Account?

After doing my own research it appears this depends on what kind of Android device you want to enroll. Starting with:

• Set up Android Enterprise work profile enrollments
• Set up Android Enterprise dedicated device enrollments
• Set up Android Enterprise fully managed enrollments

In my case, I wanted to enroll a fully-managed device:

Enroll Android Enterprise dedicated, fully managed, or corporate-owned work profile devices in Intune - Microsoft Intune | Microsoft Learn

According to the above documentation:

*Admins or users are to: (5) On the Google sign-in screen, enter afw#setup instead of a Gmail account, and then choose
NEXT.*

The next step is to scan or input the Android enrollment token - Intune blade (Azure portal) > Device enrollment - Android enrollment > Android enrollment (under Manage) > Corporate-owned, fully managed user devices (Preview)
