When looking at the various app types (win32 vs LOB vs pkg etc.) and scripts across the various platforms, the assignment options in Intune are not consistent.  Is there an initiative to normalize this to offer a complete & consistent experience across all assignments (apps, app types, scripts etc.) regardless of the target platform (Windows, Mac etc.)?

 

Examples:

  • Win32 apps allow filters
  • Mac apps (pkg/dmg) do not allow filters
  • Windows Line of business apps allow for setting include and exclude assignment modes.  Few, if any, other apps or scripts allow that.
  • Windows Line of business apps (among others) don't allow setting availability, installation deadline etc.
  • Mac apps (pkg/dmg) only allow for required assignments which is not always desirable. Why isn't available an option?
