How to restrict deployment of application/policies etc based of Computer Type
Hello All,
Is there a way to identify if target system is desktop or laptop.
Once identified , we can deploy our application or policies to them.
Only option i could think is to put in logic in application to check for device type and then perform task or skip it.
The only possible options that I can think of and which are available out of the box are Device filters and azure AD groups based on device models.
- Agree with the comment above. I do it with Dynamic Membership based on device Model. So I use Dell, Optiplex for Desktop and Latitude for Laptop as an example, you may still have an issue with model like Precision because they come Desktop and Laptop.
Moe - It's too bad that you can't query it like the WMI filters in Group Policy management in Active Directory, you could create one querying the presence of a battery. If there was one, that it's a laptop otherwise it's a desktop 🙂
- Agree. Hoping to have some custom fields in intune that will be helpful for many scenerio.
