Hi Nicolas,

Thanks for your answer.
I got more info as well.
Basically Azure AD works in a completely different way. To be compatible
with LDAP or "legacy" domain join it has the Azure Active Directory Domain
Services, the problem here is that this is read-only, not manageable at
all, only used for authentication.
So basically I don't even have an option to manually add the machine to it,
I think the only way is if somehow this object creation can be skipped
since the domain join is actually successful.
Any thoughts?

Thanks
