How can we set Intune apps to REQUIRED without them installing during Autopilot (v1) please - i.e. so they don't try to install before Autopilot has finished?
Each time an app is set to REQUIRED we would have to re-test our Autopilot sequence, as sometimes apps cause issues with/break Autopilot. Also, sometimes, we do not want very big apps (e.g. AutoCAD) attempting to install during, and holding-up, Autopilot. Also, not all apps are REQUIRED for all users/devices, so we wouldn't be able to test each conceivable combination of REQUIRED apps etc. with our Autopilot sequence.
Could we have an option in the app settings for WHEN AUTOPILOT HAS FINISHED please? Or something similar?
Thank you everyone, and for responding to my question in the AMA recording, it is much appreciated 🙂

Thank you. We do set most of our apps to AVAILABLE however some mandatory security or app updates we cannot leave to/rely on the users to self-serve from Company Portal (because they won't do it...). Maggie - I read in a few places that the Autopilot "Block list" still lets other REQUIRED apps install during Autopilot, which is why we haven't implemented this method. Is there any truth to this?

On the Enrollment Status Page profile, configure it to block on "selected" apps and not all required apps. Hope this helps.
