Client side minimum requirements for AVD

5 users found this article helpful

Parallels Client requirements for opening Azure Virtual Desktop apps and desktops are as follows:

Note: If you are using the Standard client feature set option and Windows 10 and Windows 11 Enterprise Virtual Desktop as desktop OS where the Parallels Client is running (nested), the administrator needs to have the Windows Desktop client preinstalled using the per-device installation as highlighted by Microsoft in the following article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/windowsdesktop-admin.
Note: Video feed is not available if Microsoft Teams is accessed as a published application using the Advanced client feature set.
Note: At the time of this writing, it is not yet possible to use other platform-specific Parallels Clients to launch Azure Virtual Desktop resources. However, you can use Parallels Web Client to do that on certain operating systems (see below).

When you connect to Parallels RAS from Parallels Client for Windows, all published resources, including Azure Virtual Desktop resources, are listed and made available for a user to access. 

Note AVD resources are listed and able to launch seemlessly from the Parallels client for non-windows platforms (macOS, Linux) using the web client.
