Access on-premise active directory from Azure functions/logic apps - azure

I'm in the process of integrating the HR system and Active directory which involves creating new users, updating existing user attributes, and disabling users in AD.
We have an on-premise Active Directory and use the Azure AD Connect to sync the Azure Active directory. We also have a domain controller in Azure VM. I have checked with the (on-premises data gateway - logic app) and (hybrid connection - azure function) both don't support on-premise active directory.
Any idea or workaround will be helpful to connect on-premise active directory or Azure VM domain controller from azure functions/logic apps etc.

You can use PowerShell script to write attributes to the on- premises Active directory. If your HR database is SQL server that can be accessed via PowerShell script.
then sync on-prem AD to AAD

Joining new on-premises Windows 2019 Server to Azure AD

I have a new on-premise server with a fresh Windows Server 2019 install. We have an existing Azure AD that our users use for Office 365 and to log in to their computers which are joined to the Azure. How can I join the server to Azure AD so that users are synced to the on premises server? Specifically, I'd like users to add network shares using their Azure credentials for authentication. I've googled and read through a lot of manuals and I'm trying to avoid creating users on the server and then manually syncing each to Azure. Is there a way to just import and sync the users from Azure to the server or only use Azure for authentication?
Server uses:
Local network storage (users would need to add shares as "network drives" using their user account info)
SQL Server for an local network programs
Also, moving these two services to the cloud is not currently an option.
You can join your Server as a Hybrid Azure AD join and there is no Azure AD join for servers. If you join your machine to Azure AD there is no option to sync the users from Cloud to server.
If you have on-premises environment and Azure AD. You can use a tool called Azure AD connect and sync the users from on-premises to Cloud. There is no direct tool to synchronize the users from Cloud to on-premises.
Hybrid Azure AD join where the machine is joined to both on-premises AD and Azure AD . Kindly check this link for Azure AD join.

Can I setup my application deployment with Azure Windows Virtual Desktop(Preview) without azure active directory?

I want to test my application deployment with Azure Windows Virtual Desktop(Preview), but we do not have azure active directory setup in my application azure deployment. As we are doing lift & shift of our existing on-premise deployment, we have created a domain controller and setup a windows active directory into it on an azure VM.
In msdn documentation for WVD setup, I found multiple steps involved the Azure Active directory. Is it possible to create a WVD setup using the domain controller?
Azure AD extends on-premises Active Directory environments into the cloud, enabling users to use their primary organizational account to sign in not only to their domain-joined devices and company resources, but also to all the web and SaaS applications they need for their jobs.
And Important part of WVD Requirement is An Azure Active Directory and domain controller in sync with Azure Active Directory.

Azure website with windows authentication

I have created an application which is having Windows authentication with my office/domain action directory. Now I want to move the application Azure, not sure how the authentication will work then or what changes will be required.
One solution is to create a Azure Active Directory (AAD), sync it with local AD and set up ADFS. Secure the application in Azure using the synced AAD.
