O365 pro plus change channel channel

Brass Contributor

Hi, I would like to know what is the latest way to change a semi-annual channel to a semi-annual targeted channel and also how to change a monthly channel to a semi-annual channel.

 

I will need to do this remotely via Configmgr.

 

Thank you in advance and don't hesitate if you have any questions.

@Stephane Lalancette In case you don't want to use GPOs, you can simply re-run the ODT through SCCM with the following short XML:

 

<Configuration>
	<Updates Enabled="TRUE" Channel="Monthly" />
</Configuration>

Office apps must be closed, but Office is not re-installed. Next time the update cycle kicks in, the client will switch the channel to the given one. When you manage updates through SCCM, make sure that the matching updates are assigned to these devices.
