Creating a basic integration for Microsoft Intune assets

You can create two types of integrations for Microsoft Intune:

• Basic integration. Use this integration when you want to stream asset and software data into Oomnitza.
• Extended integration. Use this integration when you want to stream only asset data into Oomnitza.     

Basic integration

Let Oomnitza be your single source of truth!

You'll get visibility of all your computer and software assets as data from Microsoft Intune is automatically transformed into consumable information and actionable insights.

3. Enter a Name for your OAuth2 application
4. Specify who can use the application, sometimes called its sign-in audience.
5. In the Redirect URI (optional) field, select Web and enter the following redirect URI: https://generic-oauth2-proxy.oomnitza.com/oauth2/redirect_url
6. Click Register. This will create your app registration. 
7. From the sidebar, select API permissions.
8. Click + Add a Permission
9. Select Microsoft Graph
10. Select Delegated permissions
11. Select DeviceManagementManagedDevices and then select DeviceManagementManagedDevices.Read.Allpermissions.

Integrate Intune with Oomnitza

Software data retrieval and scheduling

In the Settings section, select Software if you want to retrieve the software data for your assets. The name and the version of the software is retrieved.

In the Sync session frequency section, you can configure the schedule to meet your needs such as changing the interval or changing the time so that the data is streamed when your system isn't busy.

By default, Intune asset data is streamed to Oomnitza once every day. Software data retrieval is set to off unless you selected Software in the Add Software Details section.

1. Specify the Sync Session frequency, which determines how often the Intune information is streamed to Oomnitza.
2. Click Next.

Map

To get the information that you need to manage your assets, complete these actions:

1. On the Mappings page, map the Intune fields to the Oomnitza fields. 
2. Select a unique value for the sync key, such as the Serial Number, which will synchronize the data that is streamed from Intune to Oomnitza.
3. Click FINISH.

Monitor Intune integration

To monitor the loading of information into Oomnitza, click Sync Sessions. You can check:

• The status of the data collection
• The number of new records that were added
• The number of records that were updated
• The number of records that were skipped
• The number of errors that were generated
