Windows8.1 and intune

I want to manage windows8.1 pro with intune. But windows8.1 pro seems to only work with my personal microsoft account.
My organization prohibits the use of microsoft accounts.
Is there a way to install the app from intune? And, Is there a way to log in to azure ad in windows8.1?

@tarouchabi-7271 Thanks for posting in our Q&A.
Actually windows 8.1 pro is supported by Intune. We also recommend that you install the Company Portal app, which lets you easily identify and get the company apps that are relevant to you and your role. We can refer to the link to manage our windows 8.1 devices:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/user-help/enroll-your-w81-or-rt81-windows
Hope the above information can help.

Currently, windows8.1 intune portal app is obsolete and cannot be installed.
My organization prohibits the use of microsoft accounts. Do you know how to install other apps from intune?
And, If you know, please let me know. windows8.1 needs to join Azure ad from the network and register with intune.
Is there a way to automate it, such as a GPO?

@tarouchabi-7271 Thanks for your reply. I noticed that intune portal app is obsolete. Could you confirm whether the intune portal app refers to the company portal app?

I have found an official article introducing how to sideload LOB Windows Store apps apps on devices running Windows 8.1. Here for your reference:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/archive/blogs/scd-odtsp/windows-8-sideloading-requirements-from-technet

As far as I know, GPO enroll requirement at least Windows 10, version 1709 or later.
