MD-102 Prepare infrastructure for devices Practice Question
Your organization uses Microsoft Intune and you need to configure Windows Autopilot for hybrid Microsoft Entra ID join. Which THREE components are required?
⚠ Common exam trap
Many candidates confuse the requirement for a device compliance policy with the need for a domain join profile, not realizing that compliance policies are applied after enrollment and are not prerequisites for the Autopilot hybrid join process.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
A domain join profile (configured in Intune).
A domain join profile is required for hybrid Microsoft Entra ID join because it provides the on-premises Active Directory domain information that the device needs during Autopilot provisioning. Without this profile, the device cannot complete the domain join step, which is essential for establishing the hybrid identity state.
