Deploying apps via Intune? Do this!

[@garyguider4844]

This is a great video and very helpful. I am coming back to review this again as I don't do app deployment all the time. Thanks for your great videos!

[@theCMC]

Thanks Gary!

[@WineTwoThree]

Been diving into Autopilot/Intune (or shall we just call it Microsoft Endpoint Management?) this past 2 weeks, your videos already helped me out alot. Thanks for that. First time I get pointed on the conflict between LoB apps and Win32 when enrolling devices, very good to know! Keep up the great work, I'm already subbed and I hope you receive alot more subs.

[@theCMC]

Thanks Sam, appreciate the comments!

[@runit80]

I was just trying to figure this out as I binged watched your videos this week!!!!!!!

[@theCMC]

I was very surprised to see we hadn’t done a video on this yet!

[@strikesbac]

Just a note on the 8GB limit, this can be increased if required, you just need to submit a support request to MS and ask for it. Only installer I’ve heard of needing this was Autocad.

[@theCMC]

Awesome! I did not know that. Thanks!

[@danielkhanguyen1007]

Just a friendly update that now Windows application size is capped at 30 GB per app. - All 'paid' tenants will have a Win32 upload limit of 30 gigabytes per app. - Unpaid/trial/free tenants will remain at 8 gigabytes per app.

How to add apps inbuilt once the device gets enrolled? Like when you are done the autopilot process apps should be pushed from the autopilot profile automatically you know?

[@tomex]

Hi Dean. What would be your suggested approach for Installing Office 365 and Win32 apps? As it says they shouldn't be mixed sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't finish for hours and then eventually fail. I ended up to push Win32 apps to all devices and make Office 365 available in Company portal, but Ideal would be to have it pushed so users do as little intervention as possible? Is that achievable somehow? Thank you.

[@theCMC]

Hey Tomas, Have you considered packaging O365 as a Win32 app? It’s more work on a quarterly basis, but significantly higher success rate.

[@tomex]

@@theCMC no I haven’t as I thought that when is deployed as LoB application users will get the latest version rather than me setting up reminder to do it every 3months or so. But I might give it a try to see how it performs in a test lab. It will be more work as we’ve got users that gets Project and/or Visio based on their license.

[@theCMC]

@@tomex sure - it’s not ideal but it may be better to have additional “planned” work rather than uncontrolled amounts of unplanned work.

Is it possible to deploye every .exe applications?

[@abdelhassan5426]

I have a small issue right now. I would like to install a "custom" Teamviewer Host as an Autopilot app. That means a Teamviewer Host with Company Branding that signs in the Device to the Teamviewer management console. To do that with a .msi file we need to use a "command-line argument" that is specified by Teamviewer. We also use some apps that can only be deployed as a win32 app. That means that like it said in the video that it might cause some issues. The problem is I can't find where to put the command-line argument when I set up the Host as a win32 app. Can anyone help me with this?

[@theCMC]

Put the command-line argument after the installer.msi in the "install command" field in Intune. see here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHi9aJuoi6eGe5Y
