In today’s exciting post, I’m going to create a Conditional Access policy in Entra ID to restrict cloud apps to only Intune compliant devices, using my favourite scripting language, Powershell (and we all know how much I love a good script!) As usual, the script can be found on my ever-growing GitHub here I’ll be … Read more
Update: Update Compliance is now EOL, please use Windows Update for Business reports instead: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-it-pro-blog/now-generally-available-windows-update-for-business-reports/ba-p/3677018 Today’s post is about a Microsoft tool which is completely free and a great way of tracking Windows updates across the estate. Did I mention it’s free? If you want to read up more about it, here is the Microsoft … Read more
Sometimes, especially in large environments, keeping track of who is making which changes within Intune can be a pain and there is always that one time where change control isn’t followed and something breaks. In this post I’m going to configure Intune to alert on Audit Logs, send to an Azure Event Hub and then … Read more
Update, the cross-tenant version here is more updated and works on the same tenant as well, please use that one I often find myself needing to take a copy of individual Intune policies, either for a bit of UAT, or even to change one setting for a different group of people. Whilst there are ways … Read more
I often find myself having to create the same selection of Entra ID groups when deploying a new Intune environment and whilst the Entra Portal is easy to use, I always look to find a way to cut down how long each task takes. The more I can automate, the more I can get done … Read more
Sometimes I need to get quick AVD pricing without having to go into the depth of the Microsoft official calculator so using the Microsoft Pricing API I’ve quickly put one together: I’ve put together a quick AVD pricing calculator to grab a quick estimate pricing, it uses the MS API for the latest costs: https://azvmprice.andrewstaylor.com/avd/ … Read more
Whilst I love the Azure Pricing Calculator there are times when I need to quickly grab a VM price (on a customer call for example). In my case, I also wanted a way to grab the latest pricing within a calculation spreadsheet rather than having to go through the pricing calc GUI each time. Then … Read more
I often find myself looking in Intune to find a PC name of a machine assigned to a user (it saves having to deploy bginfo or similar), but as with many of my scripts, I like to find a quicker and easier way of doing it. This one is available both on github and Powershell … Read more
A very quick script today but one which I use regularly. There is nothing worse than deploying a new policy or app and then waiting for the machines to check-in, especially if you’ve just missed a cycle. This script runs through all devices and nudges them along. As usual it’s on GitHub and PS Gallery … Read more
For anyone in an environment with multiple customers, packaging, configuring and deploying the same app multiple times seems such a waste of valuable time, especially when having to do so with every update too! Some thanks first, this script has come together with some help from others; First up, Niels Kok for his excellent Packaging … Read more
