Ugur Koc, a Microsoft MVP and Cloud Architect, shares four powerful scripts to automate Intune alerts, ensuring IT teams can address issues before they escalate. These scripts focus on:

1. Apple Token Expiration

2. Device Compliance Drift

3. Stale Device Cleanup

4. App Deployment Failure

By leveraging these, admins avoid manual log checks and preempt user complaints. Find them on IntuneAutomation.com.

You Should Know:

1. Apple Token Expiration Script

  • Purpose: Alerts before Apple VPP/DEP tokens expire.
  • KQL Query (Azure Sentinel): 
    IntuneDevices
| where TokenExpirationTime < now() + 14d
| project DeviceName, TokenType, ExpirationTime = TokenExpirationTime
  • PowerShell Trigger: 
    Connect-MSGraph
$tokens = Get-IntuneAppleVppToken | Where-Object { $<em>.ExpirationDateTime -lt (Get-Date).AddDays(14) }
$tokens | ForEach-Object { Send-MailMessage -To "[email protected]" -Subject "Token Expiry Alert" -Body "Token $($</em>.DisplayName) expires on $($_.ExpirationDateTime)" }

2. Device Compliance Drift Detection

  • Graph API Call: 
    $complianceStatus = Invoke-MSGraphRequest -HttpMethod GET -Url "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/deviceManagement/managedDevices?`$filter=complianceState eq 'noncompliant'"
$complianceStatus.value | Export-Csv -Path "NonCompliantDevices.csv"
  • Remediation Command (Linux/Mac): 
    sudo profiles renew -type enrollment

3. Stale Device Cleanup

  • PowerShell Logic: 
    $cutoffDate = (Get-Date).AddDays(-90)
Get-IntuneManagedDevice | Where-Object { $_.LastContact -lt $cutoffDate } | Remove-IntuneManagedDevice -Force

4. App Deployment Failure Alerts

  • KQL for Failures: 
    IntuneAppInstallStatus
| where InstallState == "Failed"
| summarize FailedCount = count() by AppName
| where FailedCount > 5
  • Windows CMD for Reinstall: 
    winget install --id <AppPublisher.AppName> --force

What Undercode Say

Proactive monitoring in Intune via automation transforms reactive firefighting into strategic IT management. Key takeaways:
– Use KQL for log analytics.
– Graph API/PowerShell for real-time actions.
– Linux/macOS commands (e.g., profiles renew) ensure cross-platform compliance.
– Scheduled tasks (cron/Task Scheduler) can run these scripts daily.

Example cron job for token checks:

0 9    /usr/bin/pwsh -File /path/to/TokenCheck.ps1

Prediction

As enterprises adopt more SaaS tools, demand for low-code/no-code Intune automation will surge, with AI-driven anomaly detection (e.g., Azure Sentinel) becoming standard.

Expected Output:

  • Alerts for expiring tokens.
  • CSV reports for noncompliant devices.
  • Automated stale device cleanup.
  • App failure analytics.
