Get Enrollment Failure Report
This script retrieves enrollment troubleshooting events and Windows Autopilot deployment events from Microsoft Graph, groups the failures by category, and translates Intune's failure categories into plain-language explanations with typical fixes. Use it to spot enrollment restriction blocks, authentication problems, or licensing issues across the tenant instead of clicking through the troubleshooting portal user by user.
New to runbook deployment? Follow the step-by-step guide from the Deploy to Azure button to the first scheduled run, including granting Graph permissions to the managed identity.

Microsoft Graph scopes
DeviceManagementManagedDevices.Read.AllAllows the app to read the properties of devices managed by Microsoft Intune, without a signed-in user.
DeviceManagementServiceConfig.Read.AllAllows the app to read Microsoft Intune service properties including device enrollment and third party service connection configuration, without a signed-in user.
User.Read.AllRunning this as an Azure Automation runbook? These scopes must be granted to the account's managed identity, which has no portal UI. The deployment walkthrough shows the exact Cloud Shell commands.

deployment events from Microsoft Graph, groups the failures by category, and
translates Intune's failure categories into plain-language explanations with
typical fixes. Use it to spot enrollment restriction blocks, authentication
problems, or licensing issues across the tenant instead of clicking through

.LASTUPDATE
2026-07-30
.EXAMPLE
.\get-enrollment-failure-report.ps1
Reports enrollment failures from the last 30 days
.EXAMPLE
.\get-enrollment-failure-report.ps1 -DaysBack 7 -ExportToCsv "true"
Reports the last week of enrollment failures and exports them to CSV
.EXAMPLE
.\get-enrollment-failure-report.ps1 -IncludeAutopilotEvents "true"
Also lists Windows Autopilot deployment events with their deployment state
.NOTES
- Requires Microsoft.Graph.Authentication module
- Enrollment troubleshooting events are retained by Intune for a limited period; older failures may no longer be available
- User principal names are resolved from the userId on the event where possible
- Uses beta Graph endpoints for troubleshooting and Autopilot events
- Local interactive sign-in uses the MgGraphCommunity module to avoid the Graph SDK's mandatory WAM broker on Windows

Scripts that travel together.
Picked by shared tags, category, and script type — nothing magic, just metadata overlap.
Get App Assignment Conflicts
This script analyzes every Intune app's assignments and reports conflicts that produce unpredictable install behavior: the same app targeted with required and uninstall intent, the same group both included and excluded on one app, and the same group receiving the app with different intents. Group names are resolved so the report is directly actionable. These conflicts commonly appear after mergers of app deployments or copy-pasted assignment changes and are hard to spot in the portal.
ReportingApplication Installation Status Report
This script connects to Microsoft Graph, retrieves all managed applications and their installation status across all devices, and generates detailed reports in both CSV and HTML formats. The report includes installation state (installed, pending, failed, not applicable), error codes, device details, and summary statistics to help identify and troubleshoot application deployment issues.
ReportingApplication Inventory Report
This script connects to Microsoft Graph, retrieves all managed devices and their installed applications, and generates detailed reports in both CSV and HTML formats. The report includes application details, installation status, version information, and summary statistics across the entire device fleet.
