Intune On-Demand Proactive Remediation API Reliability for Large-Scale Usage
Hi Team, We are testing the Intune On-Demand Proactive Remediation API: POST /deviceManagement/managedDevices/{managedDeviceId}/initiateOnDemandProactiveRemediation In our environment, the remediation package works correctly, and the API generally triggers the remediation as expected. However, during repeated testing, we noticed that a small percentage of requests do not seem to reach the endpoint. For example: 20 remediation requests sent 18-19 execute successfully 1-2 never trigger on the target device Devices are online and managed by Intune Added a 30-second delay between requests, but the behavior still occurs intermittently Before adopting this in production for a large client base, we'd like to understand: Has anyone observed similar behavior? Is this API reliable for triggering remediation across multiple devices in parallel? Are there any known limitations, queueing mechanisms, throttling considerations, or best practices? Is there a recommended way to verify that a remediation request was actually delivered to the device? Since this API is still in the beta/preview stage, is there any information on its roadmap or GA timeline? Note: For additional context, detailed test results, observations, and environment information, a PDF containing the complete analysis has been attached. Any guidance or real-world experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. https://learn-attachment.microsoft.com/api/attachments/1ad5bea4-9038-4b25-9a2a-a9e66a870f6a?platform=QnA https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/intune-devices-manageddevice-initiateondemandproactiveremediation?view=graph-rest-betaDoes Microsoft Graph API Throttle When Triggering More Than 200 On-Demand Remediation Calls?
Hi Everyone, I'm using the following Microsoft Graph API endpoint to trigger proactive remediation scripts on Intune-managed devices: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/deviceManagement/managedDevices/{managedDeviceId}/initiateOnDemandProactiveRemediation My scenario involves triggering this API for around 200+ devices, each with multiple scripts. I have a few concerns and would appreciate some guidance: Are there any throttling limits specific to this endpoint or the Intune service that I should be aware of? If I send 200+ POST requests in a short time window, will I hit rate limits or receive 429 errors? What is the recommended approach to avoid throttling — should I batch requests, add delays, or implement retry logic? Is there any official documentation or best practices for handling bulk remediation triggers? I’ve reviewed the general Microsoft Graph throttling guidance and service-specific throttling limits, but I’m unsure how they apply to this specific endpoint. Any help, examples, or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Swahela Mulla
