Carl,
Reading the release notes of 2303 it states “Hybrid Azure Active Directory for SSO is now supported on instant clone desktop pools.”
Does this mean instant clones NOW support AAD Join for a hybrid model so I can get SSO and a PRT?
I don’t have details on it. The articles also say that the machine has to be in a state to get the PRT, which means the machine object needs time to replicate to Azure AD.
With Hybrid there is two ways to achieve SSO.
First one using AAD seamless SSO with an Hybrid VM. It will work out of the box . No Fas No PRT.

Second one is acivate AAD CBA and reuse the certificate from FAS yo generate a PRT token
