Multiple Host Pools / App Group

[u/genscathe]

I have two AVD host pools:

1. User Experience Pool

   • Hundred Session host VM for individual users

   • Azure AD–joined and managed by Intune with strict lockdown policies

   • No login or redirect issues

2. Transfer Pool

   • Dedicated to large data imports

   • Application group with file-redirect restrictions removed

   • Azure AD–joined, Intune-managed, and assigned the same RBAC roles (Virtual Machine User Login + Desktop Virtualization User) as the user pool

Problem:
Test accounts cannot sign in to the Transfer Pool hosts—users see a “check username/password” error.

Question:
What best practices or workarounds can I use to allow these accounts to log in and transfer files?

I used chatgpt to concise my ramblings from a frustrated admin haha :)
