Intro This post is for autopilot newbies or for anyone who wants a review of manually enrolling devices. In most cases, we try to use scripted automation for existing device enrollment. I have a few posts on some various ways to do this here, here, and here. If you have an RMM and numerous devices […]

A couple months ago I posted how you can upload autopilot hardware hash files directly to blob storage from your target machines – https://smbtothecloud.com/upload-autopilot-hardware-hashes-to-azure-blob-storage/. I wanted to try automating as much of the remaining process as possible and found myself down a rabbit hole. This solution is probably overkill to gather hardware hash files, but

Creating dynamic (or assigned) groups with the Graph PowerShell module is a very efficient way to make multiple groups in just a few seconds. This can be particularly useful if you work at an MSP where you work with new Intune clients frequently, and have group templates you use for all your tenants. The Graph

Intro Several months ago I read a blog about exporting and importing Intune configuration profiles and policies between tenants (Export & Import Intune policies and configuration using Graph API (cloudsecuritea.com). This method worked well and saved a lot of time, but this method doesn’t work for settings catalog profiles. Now that settings catalogs are the

Getting devices registered in autopilot can be a pain if they are already in production. I wrote a post last month about uploading hardware hashes to blob storage (or a network share) and then merging the CSV hashes into a single file for upload. However, I recently discovered the Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo script can authenticate to your

When organizations want to secure their company data but still allow employees to use personal mobile devices (Android/iOS), the best option is to use MAM (Mobile Application Management). MAM is accomplished by using an App Protection Policy along with a Conditional Access Policy. You can use MAM in conjunction with MDM, but this post will
If you are constantly testing Intune and autopilot configurations, you probably use hyper-v on your local PC or have some form of virtualization to help accomplish this. When you’re testing configs for various tenants, its usually quicker to spin up a machines with a unique VM ID & serial number for testing. I tried to

If you have a use case to exclude or include certain devices from a conditional access policy, Microsoft gives us the option to “filter for devices” when creating or editing a policy. For example, you can exclude all Dell devices from a policy. In this demonstration, I have a conditional access policy to block sign-ins from

I just came across this issue and figured I’d make a post about it. Before I begin, I am mostly anti-windows print server. There are cloud print solutions and ways to connect printers via IP port with intune. If you need to deploy printers via IP port to workstations, use Ben Whitmore’s post – https://msendpointmgr.com/2022/01/03/install-network-printers-intune-win32apps-powershell/. I

Businesses are increasingly adopting Teams as their company telephony solution. At the same, many are also ditching on prem Active Directory and turning to Endpoint Manager with Azure AD for device and identity management. In many cases, implementing QoS won’t make a noticeable difference in audio/video performance. However, if the organization has a more complex
