Description

We have a business use case for an MSTeams-like authentication and authorization experience.
Users want to be able to log into an SOE Windows laptop and, just as with other MSOffice products, be authenticated with SSO, just as they would be for MSTeams, Outlook etc.
This would have the second benefit that we would be able to federate to other cloud providers like AWS and Google using our OIDC federated identity provider details.
