Hello,

Due to changes made by Google, from July of this year onwards, it is recommended to use a Microsoft Entra account when configuring Android EMM with Microsoft Intune.

Beginning July 2024, we recommend using your Microsoft Entra account to connect to Google Play.

Though the Omnissa Workspace ONE documentation says to enter a Gmail account, has anyone successfully configured Android EMM with Omnissa Workspace ONE UEM using a Microsoft Entra account?

Where prompted to enter your work email address, provide the GMail account that should manage the Managed Google Play Accounts Enterprise.

Pros and cons using an Entra account for this.

Seems easy to connect and gives us more control over the account. Feels like a little lock in to Microsoft though.

If you do make sure you use Entra as long as you need the Android Enterprise integration.

I think I will continue to recommend creating a Google account and use an existing company email account for receiving emails (password recovery etc).
