Release and EOL/EOS dates

Hi, I have several versions of Microsoft Intune Management Extension, ranging from 1.34.x to 1.84.x, for which I need release and EOL/EOS dates. Could anyone assist me with this?

    1. Official Microsoft Documentation:
      • Check the Microsoft Intune Service Updates page and Microsoft 365 Message Center for announcements on updates and changes to Intune services. These sources might provide release notes or version changes that correspond to certain timeframes.
    2. Microsoft Intune Release Notes:
      • Visit the Intune What's New page for feature updates and any references to the Intune Management Extension.
      • Detailed update information for specific components of Intune might be less granular, so broader announcements or major version changes are more common.
    3. Community and Forums:
      • Engage in technical forums such as Microsoft Tech Community, Spiceworks, or Reddit where other IT professionals may have logged similar details or discussed version-specific updates.
      • Searching for your specific version numbers (e.g., "Microsoft Intune Management Extension 1.34.x release date") can yield relevant discussions or findings.
    4. Support and Service Lifecycle:
      • While Intune, as part of Microsoft Endpoint Manager, has a well-documented service lifecycle, detailed EOL/EOS information for specific Intune Management Extension versions is rare. Microsoft generally manages this component automatically through service updates. For major lifecycle details, visit the Microsoft Lifecycle Policy site for general guidelines.
    5. Direct Contact with Microsoft Support:
      • For precise information on release dates or lifecycle status of specific versions, reaching out to Microsoft Support or your Microsoft Account Representative may be the most direct route. They can provide tailored information and access internal release logs if needed.

    Additional Resources:

    • Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Center: Sometimes the update logs within the Admin Center can provide insights into recent changes or versions pushed to managed devices.
    • Change Log Monitoring Tools: Utilize tools that monitor changes in Microsoft Intune services and related extensions to keep historical data.

      The version numbering (1.xx.x) indicates major, minor, and patch versions respectively. However, Microsoft doesn't typically publish formal EOL/EOS dates for individual IME versions since it's expected that organizations will stay current with the latest versions.
