MicrosoftWindows Autopatch - Generally Available!
Hi all! Excited to share that Windows Autopatch is now Generally Available (GA)! Check out our latest GA announcement blog as well as our new marketing page.
What's new for Windows Autopatch?
...
Thank you for the update.
Hi, before GA we raised a support ticket as we could not see any reporting for Autopatch. We were told this was because it was in Preview and at GA would appear under MEM -> Reports - Autppatch
Now it is in GA, we still can't see reporting under MEM -> Reports for Autopatch
Autopatch just doesn't exist in there.

- MikeC45 I was concerned about the same lack of reports & emails and opened a support case last week. The support engineer said that in order to receive Autopatch notifications, we must go into the Message Center / Preferences / Email tab and subscribe to notifications for the Microsoft 365 Suite. I complained that this is not what the docs say at all and asked the technician if they could be updated/clarified but I have not heard back in a few days.
We didn't discuss the actual compliance reports, but I found a blurb somewhere in the docs that say "Update Compliance" is supported by AutoPatch. So I am presuming that we will have to gather the compliance reports ourselves using Update Compliance, which again is not ideal for a solution that MS is supposed to be fully managing. I would expect to see status emails about when patching is starting, and a summary of what the compliance is when it is complete.
To get more visibility into this issue/request you may want to post a new topic to this forum and/or also open a support case. Please keep us posted on what they tell you because communication of how the patching is going is very important!
