Managed iOS app setting distribution via mdm
You need to implement mdm distributed settings to your apps. So office365 admins can pre configure apps with username details (possibly passwords) and share drive settings. And who knows what else.
A number of mdm solutions allow for pre configuration of apps when they are distributed by their mdm, through simple xml code, providing the app supports it.
In many schools and company's that have mdm solutions this allows them to leverage their mdm to improve the user experience of the apps.

It's 2018 and we are still having to ask for this? I do not care how hard Microsoft pushes, i am NOT moving away from my current MDM. Please, just let us set app configs in our own MDM. There is not 1 single reason why you can't play nice. It's not like people are going to stop buying Excel.

How far away is this feature. It is definitely needed for schools where students are unable to enter the required info.

This is a must have feature. Many organization have Apple devices and utilize an MDM to manage them. Microsoft could add much value to this the O365 product by implementing managed app configurations. Login is not a one time deal with so many shared devices in the field. MDM's often feature multi-user support (where a user can sign in and receipt their apps, email, and app configurations for a shift).

This would provide massive value as an organizations continue to focus on MDM space. Regardless of the MDM vendor this just makes sense. https://www.appconfig.org/

Really, really could use this feature for automatically populating username (email) during sign-in for your O365 apps. An update on progress would be nice...
