Multiple Identity Support for Intune MAM Policies

Let’s look into Multiple Identity Support for Intune MAM Policies. Intune Support for Multiple Outlook MAM Accounts is officially part of the Microsoft Intune roadmap. Microsoft plans to release the Multiple MAM accounts support feature by July 2023 in preview.

We have noticed some use cases for this scenario. A couple of contract staff from different organizations (entities) wanted to use the same iOS device for accessing their emails using Microsoft Outlook.

Microsoft Outlook is Intune App Protection Policy enabled application, and the corporate apps are managed by Intune. Intune can’t support MAM protection for multiple identities, even though the apps such as Teams, Outlook, Word, and Excel are multi-identity supported apps.

There could be scenarios where the organization uses different AD tenants but need to use the same devices with Intune MAM policies. Another Intune feature roadmap item – Intune To Introduce Account Driven User Enrollment For IOS/iPadOS.

Intune App Protection Policies

Intune app protection policies are also known as Mobile Application Management (MAM) policies. What are MAM policies? Apps that are incorporated with Intune App protection policies code using Intune SDK, App wrapping tools for iOS or Android.

Protection of Core app settings – Copy & Paste, Encryption, DLP, CA without managing the Device
Protection of Advanced App Configuration Settings – Customize app behavior, Save as Location Control, disable multi-identity, etc…

  • Partner productivity apps – Zoom for Intune, ServiceNow Agent – Intune, etc
  • Partner UEM apps – coexistence between apps that support Intune App Protection Policies and partner unified endpoint management (UEM) solutions. Examples: Workspace ONE Send and Citrix ShareFile for Intune.

  1. Hi @Anoop,

    How do you know if the LOB/win32 App size can be extended through service request? I asked one of the core Microsoft support engineers, he said not doable.
    Do you have any reference to the Microsoft documents to support this ? Please share if any. Thanks
