Shopping 6.1

Managing Intune applications

Intune applications are largely managed the same as Configuration Manager applications. Refer to Managing Configuration Manager applications page for details.

New Intune applications

For new applications, the differences for Intune applications in the New ConfigMgr/Intune Application Wizard are on the following two tabs.

Note

The Intune application itself (in Intune) must be set to run in system context and silently. Otherwise, non-administrative users won't be able to install it.

Application delivery mechanism

After specifying the approval details in the New ConfigMgr/Intune Wizard, you can specify the Application delivery mechanism as either ConfigMgr, Intune, or Both.

If the application is available in both ConfigMgr and Intune, it will be delivered using ConfigMgr on computers that only have the ConfigMgr client and using Intune on computers that only have the Intune client. If both clients are available, the preferred delivery mechanism you specify will be used.

If the application is to be delivered by both mechanisms, you will be prompted for ConfigMgr application details as usual but the application can only be a ConfigMgr application model application.

Intune Application Details

The next tab allows you to select the kind of Intune applications that are supported by Shopping 6.0

  • Line-of-Business app

  • Windows app (Win32)

  • Store For Business App

This terminology corresponds to the Intune terminology:

  • Line-of-business apps are Windows Installer (MSI) apps

  • Win32 apps are packaged using the Microsoft IntuneWinAppUtil.exe utility

  • Store for Business apps are links to Microsoft Store for Business apps

Intune Application Details

When you use the down-arrow of theApplicationdropdown list box, Shopping will retrieve a list of Intune applications of that type. You can then click on the application to be added.

Note

If the dropdown list is empty but you have applications available in Intune, it's likely your administrator account is not properly set up.

See the account Shopping Preparation section for more details.

Intune Application Details

Depending on the configuration of the Application, the type will be indicated as either Device or User.

For Line-of-Business and Store for Business apps, you can select whether the application is Required or not. Windows apps are always required. Required apps are automatically installed. Non-required apps are installed when the user selects them from the Intune Company Portal.

Intune Application Details
Managing Existing Applications

For existing applications in Shopping, the Delivery tab of the application properties shows the Intune and/or ConfigMgr properties of the application.

If the application can be delivered by Intune, the only Intune-related property that can be changed is Required.

If the application can be delivered by ConfigMgr, the only ConfigMgr-related property that can be be changed is Can be uninstalled.

If the application is a ConfigMgr application model application only, the application can also be linked to an Intune application and the Intune details can be specified. ConfigMgr package/program and task sequence applications cannot be linked to Intune applications.

If the application is an Intune application only, the application can also be linked to a ConfigMgr application and the ConfigMgr details can be specified.
