I have Jamf connect configured with entra ID and requires authentication with their network account at each restart. My users are unable to sign into their macs offline because the account cannot authenticate with microsoft. Is this a setting within jamf connect that I can change to allow a local account to pass through when not connected to internet?

I think you’ll need to look at the “Allow local fallback” option in the Jamf Connect configuration profile.

‘Allow local fallback’ is set to true currently

Then you may need to look at Passthrough Authentication. I’m not sure if this would be optimal in your setup since we’re a Google shop but we wanted to make sure if the device didn’t have a network connection they could always choose to login with the local account.
