Intune log reader app?
Hello The log file here: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Logs\IntuneManagementExtension.log looks like it has a format. Is there a viewer app for this log type? Thanks...
CMTrace is not free, it requires SCCM, CfgMgr or System Centre licensing to use. Just because someone can copy the .exe into a zip file and host it on their own site for download does not make it free.
Just wondering but can you show me the website in which is stated that you need to pay money to download and install the sccm TOOLKIT? the cmtrace was also offered on an official ms download link (until it was replaced with onetrace)
- Wrote a blog post about using PowerShell for this 🙂 https://powershellisfun.com/2022/09/12/read-intunemanagementextension-logs-using-powershell/ (And yes, I got the idea to do so from this post 😄 )
Thanks Rudy for the original reply over a year ago. Cmtrace was indeed the solution, I should have replied back then, sorry.
Re licensing, it would be nice if MS explained it in simple terms somewhere. The closest thing i could find was this post below, not from MS, that mentions that cmtrace can be used with intune due to a CAL being included with M365 license that you need for Intune, but not with all M365 licenses.
