Enable and Administer OneDrive for Business for Your WorkSpaces Applications Users

WorkSpaces Applications supports the following persistent storage options for users in your organization.

  • OneDrive for Business

  • Google Drive for Google Workspace

  • Home folders

You can enable one or more options for your organization. When you enable OneDrive for Business for an WorkSpaces Applications stack, users of the stack can link their OneDrive for Business account to WorkSpaces Applications. Then they can sign into their OneDrive for Business account and access their OneDrive folder during application streaming sessions. Any changes that they make to files or folders in OneDrive during those sessions are automatically backed up and synchronized, so that they are available to users outside of their streaming sessions.

Important

You can enable OneDrive for Business for accounts in your OneDrive domains only, but not for personal accounts. WorkSpaces Applications requires that you configure your Microsoft Azure Active Directory environment to allow end-user consent to applications. For more information, see Configure how end-users consent to applications in the Azure Active Directory Application management documentation.

The admin consent workflow lets administrators grant access to applications that require administrator approval. If the admin consent workflow is configured in your Azure Active Directory environment, follow the step given in Enable OneDrive for Your WorkSpaces Applications Users to specify the domains that require admin consent.

Note

You can enable OneDrive for Business for Windows stacks, but not for Linux stacks or stacks associated with multi-session fleets.
