Dissection and Interpretation of particles making up the InterpretedUserType

|---|---|---|
| User | User Object: Query with AzureAdUser, CsOnlineUser, etc. | 100 |
| Application Instance | Resource Account: Query with AzureAdUser, CsOnlineApplicationInstance NOTE: Department on AzureAdUser is fixed and an indicator for this. If Department is changed, Object can become corrupted (shows up as User) NOTE: CsOnlineUser will return the object as well, but changes should be done through Set-CsOnlineApplicationInstance to retain integrity of the Object |
