Programmatic Method to Limit Data Usage in Windows 11

I think this is my first post so hoping I'm putting it in the right place!

I'd like to impose a Data Limit on corporate SIM/Cellular cards in our laptops.

 

 

There is a way for users to set their own data limits, as shown in this conversation: How to Limit Data Usage in Windows 11 | Microsoft Community Hub

However, I'd like to apply this setting myself automatically via Intune, perhaps via a PowerShell script.

 

Can we please have a registry setting or even better an Intune CSP to automate the creation of data limits?

    You're right to look for a way to centrally manage data limits on corporate SIM/cellular cards in Windows laptops via Intune. While Windows doesn't directly expose a built-in setting for data limits through a straightforward registry key or CSP, you can control some aspects of mobile broadband (WWAN) profiles and potentially automate data limits through configuration profiles or PowerShell scripts.
