Déployer une application du store en obligatoire

Copper Contributor

Bonjour à tous, chère communauté microsoft,

 

Je fais des essais de windows autopilot sur mon PC.

Après moultes difficultés à comprendre le fonctionnement, je suis arrivé à faire une installation de base de mon PC.

Par contre, je n'arrive pas à comprendre comment rendre obligatoire des applications du store.

Et je n'arrive même pas à installer le store sur mon PC avec intune.

 

Ma problématique est que quand autopilot a déployé mon PC, j'ai pu mettre des applications comme office ou edge en obligatoire. Mais à part ca, il est resté "vierge". Pas de calculatrice, pas de paint, pas de microsoft store, etc. Et impossible d'installer quoi que ce soit avec intune.

 

J'ai par exemple configurée la calculatrice et paint sur intune à partir du microsoft store. Mais je ne peux les rendre que "disponible" et non "obligatoire" comme c'est le cas pour office. Du coup, ils ne se déploient pas automatiquement. Et puisque le microsoft store n'est pas installé sur ma machine, je ne peux même pas les installer manuellement non plus.

 

J'ai lu qu'on pouvait rendre des applis du store obligatoire avec intune sur le PC en utilisant le business store.

Mais d'une part, je ne peux pas l'installer manuellement puisque je n'ai pas de microsoft store. Et d'autre parts, il va être décommissionné bientôt. Il me faudrait donc une autre solution.

 

Du coup, je ne comprends pas comment tout ca fonctionne...
Comment installer des applications du store automatiquement sur ma machine ? Ou comment installer un store qui me permettrait d'installer les applications disponibles ?

Merci d'avance ! :)

Hi,

Are you using this setting in ESP ‘block device use until these required apps are installed if they are assigned to the user/device? Then selecting Company Portal? Remove Company Portal from the list of apps and give it another try. I think whats happening that you trying to install Company Portal before Microsoft Store installed.

It would be great to see screenshot of Enrollment Starting Page, it could be timing out and highly recommending disabling the configuration progress page.  (Screenshot attached)

Hello @Moe_Kinani,

 

Thank you for your response.

Yes, I use this setting, but only M365 and edge are mandatory. Company portal is not in the list.

 

And I can't find a way to have company portal or microsoft store or any other application from the store deployed automatically on workstations.

 

So, because company portal and the microsoft store are not installed automatically , I cannot install anything from client workstation, nor from endpoint... :(

 

I attach some screenshot (in French, sorry)

I think it’s timing out and other apps are not getting installed. You have only 60 mins to download the apps by default. Can you disable ESP setting and give it another? Or increase the the time in the screenshot attached.

@rramillien :

Hey,

have you assigned all apps as required? If they are only available, they are only offered in the Company Portal and a user can decide for himself which app he wants to install. 

For the company portal I recommend to assign this as mandatory or use alternatively, the web version of the Company Portal: https://portal.manage.microsoft.com/

 

The applications that you configure in the ESP means that the ESP will not be closed until these are installed, but this has nothing to do with the assignment of the app itself. You must set the assignment directly in the app to required so that these are also installed. If you select an application in ESP that is not assigned then you will run into a time out or error.

Hello @Moe_Kinani,

 

Thank you, but I think the problem comes that applications are not required.
I want them to be deploy, but I only have an option to make them available.

M365 and edge are required and works well.

But I can't find a way to make any app coming from store required. Netiher company portal nor any other app.

Bonjour Jannick,

Merci beaucoup pour vos explication. C'est très clair, et effectivement, je pense que cela vient de là. Mais le soucis est que je ne sais pas comment rendre l'application obligatoire, je n'ai pas l'option.

Avez vous fait quelque chose pour avoir l'option "required" ? Quand je l'ajoute en temps que "Application de Microsoft Store", quelque soit l'application du store, je ne l'ai qu'en "available".

Je vois que c'est marqué "Microsoft store for business app" sur votre screenshot. J'imagine que ca vient de là et qu'en l'utilisant, ca résoudrait mon problème. Mais Microsoft indique que ce sera retiré au premier trimestre 2023:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-store/microsoft-store-for-business-overview
Du coup, je préférerais utiliser la méthode préconisée à la place.
En plus, quand j'ajoute une application, j'ai l'option microsoft store, M365, edge, liens web, métier ou win32. Mais pas de business store.

Et pour répondre a votre remarque sur l'utilisation du portail web, il ne fonctionne pas. Il me renvoie sur une URL qui est censée lancer l'outil (ms-windows-store:PDP?PFN=Microsoft.CompanyPortal_8wekyb3d8bbwe) mais étant donné qu'il n'est pas installé, ce ne fonctionne pas.

Bref, je ne comprend pas comment rendre les applications du microsoft store obligatoires...

Merci !

hi @rramillien,

 

The windows store will not be retired, only the store for business portal will be retired. 

please read this blog post.

https://call4cloud.nl/2022/06/the-microsoft-store-for-business-the-curse-of-the-retirement/

Did you configure the Microsoft Store for business connector to sync your store apps into Intune? 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/windows-store-for-business

 

After you have configured the connector, you have to sync the applications. Now all application that has been purchased from the store for business will be automatically added to the app section in Intune and you are able to assign a group for required install for those apps.

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/apps-deploy


please don’t use the store for business to assign applications. You must use the Intune portal to assign the application.

 

In the store for business you only have the option to make the app available for the user and the app will only be display in the Microsoft store in the company tab. 


hopefully this will helps you.

 

kind regards,

Hey @rramillien,

you can check out my blog post here I explain step by step how you can deploy a app from the Store as required to the managed devices (Example is quick assist but this applies also to all other store applications):

https://jannikreinhard.com/2022/06/17/how-to-update-quick-assist-with-intune/

Bonjour @Mr_Helaas and @Jannik_Reinhard

Thank you, it helped me a lot.

I was looking for a solution that didn't use business store because it will be retired, but finally, I use it and it works.
So I will stick to business store for a few month and see for another solution when it will be retired.

Best regards,

régis
