Update 2204 for the Technical Preview Branch of Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager has been released. In this release, administrators can now organize automatic deployment rules (ADR) using folders. This feature helps to enable better categorization and management of ADRs. Folder management is also supported with PowerShell Cmdlets.
This preview release also includes:
Administration Service Management option
When configuring Azure Services, a new option called Administration Service Management is now added for enhanced security. Selecting this option allows administrators to segment their admin privileges between cloud management gateway (CMG) and administration service. By enabling this option, access is restricted to only administration service endpoints. Configuration Management clients will authenticate to the site using Azure Active Directory.
Note:
Currently, the administration service management option can’t be used with CMG.
