Update Compliance prerequisites

(Applies to: Windows 11 & Windows 10)

Important

  • As of August 17, 2022, a new step needs to be taken to ensure access to the preview version of Update Compliance and the CommercialID is no longer required. For more information, see Configure Update Compliance settings through the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  • This information relates to a preview feature that's available for early testing and use in a production environment. This feature is fully supported but it's still in active development and may receive substantial changes until it becomes generally available.

Update Compliance prerequisites

Before you begin the process of adding Update Compliance to your Azure subscription, ensure you meet the prerequisites.

Azure and Azure Active Directory

  • An Azure subscription with Azure Active Directory
  • You must have either an Owner or Contributor Azure role as a minimum in order to add the Update Compliance solution.
  • Devices must be Azure Active Directory-joined and meet the below OS, diagnostic, and endpoint access requirements.
  • Devices that are Workplace joined only (Azure AD registered) aren't supported with Update Compliance.

Operating systems and editions

Update Compliance only provides data for the standard Desktop Windows client version and isn't currently compatible with Windows Server, Surface Hub, IoT, or other versions.

Windows client servicing channels

Update Compliance supports Windows client devices on the following channels:

  • General Availability Channel
  • Update Compliance counts Windows Insider Preview devices, but doesn't currently provide detailed deployment insights for them.

Diagnostic data requirements

At minimum, Update Compliance requires devices to send diagnostic data at Required level (previously Basic). Some queries in Update Compliance require devices to send diagnostic data at the following levels:

  • Optional level (previously Full) for Windows 11 devices

  • Enhanced level for Windows 10 devices

    Note

    Device names don't appear in Update Compliance unless you individually opt-in devices by using policy. The configuration script does this for you, but when using other client configuration methods, set one of the following to display device names:

    • CSP: System/AllowDeviceNameInDiagnosticData
    • Group Policy: Allow device name to be sent in Windows diagnostic data under Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Data Collection and Preview Builds

For more information about what's included in different diagnostic levels, see Diagnostics, feedback, and privacy in Windows.
