Windows App Bulk Assignment
Hey there,
Is there a way to assign a large number of apps to Windows devices quickly? I've got a pretty good list of apps that have been created and tested in Intune. Now I need to assign a bunch of them to groups. I don't see any way to assign these quickly and I'm not excited about clicking through the 20+ apps that are in this list currently. Thoughts?
TIA

Hi DGMalcolm,
It is not possible via the Intune portal, but you can perform your assignment via the graph api.Their are multiple ways to achieve your goal. You can use a PowerShell script. For example this script

Or directly in the graph api via the following url:
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/deviceAppmanagement/mobileApps/{AppID}/Assignments
And to automate task via the graph api, you can use power automate or a logic app.
hopefully this will help you.
kind regards,
rene

Just in case anyone stumbles on this and has access to Intune for Education. You can do this in IfE much easier, completely stumbled on this but it's probably documented somewhere.
Navigate to your Group, Select the App type you want to assign, Select the appropriate App (or Token for iOS), Select the apps to Assign and then Save.
It's basic for sure but does the job pretty well so far. (iOS apps you can only assign Required or Available)
