vRA 8.2 - Select AD Domain to Deploy Machine To

We have a multi-domain environment and in our vRA request form we give users the ability to select which domain they want to deploy the machine to.

In vRA 7.x there was the ability to use the property ext.policy.activedirectoy.id to select which Active Directory Policy to use, but I don't see a similar option in vRA 8.2.  When I ran the migration assistant it said that this property was "partially supported", so I expected some use or replacement for this.  Has anyone been able to do this?

Hello @Psel10 how are you?

Can you check if this link can help you? http://burdweiser.com/join-a-vm-to-ad-in-vra-8-x/

In short, the author create several Customization Specs that will be responsible to put the VM in the chosen domain, and a list in the blueprint that will allow user to select which one.
