Hybrid Domain Join - Name Prefix

So I finally got Intune working in our Hybrid Environment but I cant stand the way it names our devices (Prefix). What i was hoping for was TP-%SERIAL% but from what i understand it will not support ANY variables in the naming prefix. Can i get some suggestions as to who to shorten the name to TP-(No more than 6 characters) or any tips? Thanks.

    Isaias_Perez There is only one option you can use with hybrid and that is a prefix.

     

    You can create a Configuration Policy in Intune of the type "Domain Join (preview).

    There you have the setting "Computer name prefix". There are random characters added after that prefix to get a 15 character computer name.

     

    So if you add "Contoso-PC-" you will get something like Contoso-PC-1KNI, Contoso-PC-1HZQ and so on
