ADFS/WAP - Applying Access Control Policy to WAP only?

I need to restrict external ADFS access through the WAP to a certain relying party trust (365 federation) to only those in a particular AD group. I need all other internal ADFS requests to remain as "permit all"

Can I apply a policy to the WAPs only for a single relying party?

    Your non-Office 365 apps which utilize ADFS for authentication won't be able to use the Azure AD conditional access policies. You'll need to set up access control policies within ADFS for them since the auth requests for those apps don't touch Azure AD.

    If you look at this chart you'll see that conditional access isn't supported with WAP. Web Application Proxy is only preferred in scenarios that require a proxy server for AD FS. If you want to make use of Conditional Access you need to modify the federation to use Azure AD instead of ADFS.

    OK thank you.

    I think I'm being dumb

    I want to allow access to a particular RPT from:

    1 everyone internally 2 only those in particular AD group over the internet

    I've a singe Access Control Policy with two rules:

    1 Permit Users - from intranet network 2 Permit Users - from internet network - and from DOMAIN\ADGROUP group

    the text above the rules states "permit access if any of the following rules are met"

    Are the conditions on the second rule not correct for allowing users in a certain group external access? Intranet access is fine.
