I've a PC 1 at work where I can sign in into e.g.: GitHub using a passkey which is stored on my iPhone. Bluetooth has two activated on my iPhone and on my PC 1.

I've a PC 2 at home where I can sign in as well into GitHub using a passkey and my iPhone.

But I've I do a remote desktop connection from PC 2 to PC 1 using RDP, e.g.: home office, and I want to sign in on PC 1 using a passkey it fails because I sit in front of PC 2. I think it's because there can no Bluetooth connection established between PC 1 and my iPhone.

Any way to sign in on PC 1 using RDP and a passkey? Is there a way to redirect Bluetooth from PC 2 to PC 1 over RDP?

I think I found it out.

For RDP connection you need to allow WebAuthn redirection.

On PC 2 you need at least Windows 11 version 23H2, then the following dialog is shown on PC 2 when you want to sign on PC 1 over RDP using a passkey:

In the above dialog you can choose iPhone.

If PC 2 is running Windows 10, then only the following dialog is shown

enter image description here

In the above dialog there is no option to select iPhone.

The QR code shown by the browser, e.g.: Chrome, is not working over RDP.
