Configuring Microsoft Endpoint Manager devices for Update Compliance

Applies to

  • Windows 10
  • Windows 11

Note

As of May 10, 2021, a new policy is required to use Update Compliance: "Allow Update Compliance Processing." For more details, see the Mobile Device Management policies and Group policies tables.

This article is specifically targeted at configuring devices enrolled to Microsoft Endpoint Manager for Update Compliance, within MEM itself. Configuring devices for Update Compliance in MEM breaks down to the following steps:

  1. Create a configuration profile for devices you want to enroll, that contains settings for all the MDM policies that must be configured.
  2. Deploy the configuration script as a Win32 app to those same devices, so additional checks can be performed to ensure devices are correctly configured.
  3. Wait for data to populate. The length of this process depends on the computer being on, connected to the internet, and correctly configured. Some data types take longer to appear than others. You can learn more about this in the broad section on enrolling devices to Update Compliance.

Create a configuration profile

Take the following steps to create a configuration profile that will set required policies for Update Compliance:

  1. Go to the Admin portal in Endpoint Manager and navigate to Devices/Windows/Configuration profiles.
  2. On the Configuration profiles view, select Create a profile.
  3. Select Platform="Windows 10 and later" and Profile type="Templates".
  4. For Template name, select Custom, and then press Create.
  5. You are now on the Configuration profile creation screen. On the Basics tab, give a Name and Description.
  6. On the Configuration settings page, you will be adding multiple OMA-URI Settings that correspond to the policies described in Manually configuring devices for Update Compliance.
    1. If you don't already have it, get your Commercial ID. For steps, see Get your CommmercialID.
    2. Add a setting for Commercial ID with the following values:
      • Name: Commercial ID
      • Description: Sets the Commercial ID that corresponds to the Update Compliance Log Analytics workspace.
      • OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/DMClient/Provider/ProviderID/CommercialID
      • Data type: String
      • Value: Set this to your Commercial ID
    3. Add a setting configuring the Windows Diagnostic Data level for devices:
      • Name: Allow Telemetry
      • Description: Sets the maximum allowed diagnostic data to be sent to Microsoft, required for Update Compliance.
      • OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/System/AllowTelemetry
      • Data type: Integer
      • Value: 1 (all that is required is 1, but it can be safely set to a higher value).
    4. (Recommended, but not required) Add a setting for disabling devices' Diagnostic Data opt-in settings interface. If this is not disabled, users of each device can potentially override the diagnostic data level of devices such that data will not be available for those devices in Update Compliance:
      • Name: Disable Telemetry opt-in interface
      • Description: Disables the ability for end-users of devices can adjust diagnostic data to levels lower than defined by the Allow Telemetry setting.
      • OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/System/ConfigureTelemetryOptInSettingsUx
      • Data type: Integer
      • Value: 1
    5. Add a setting to Allow device name in diagnostic data; otherwise, there will be no device name in Update Compliance:
      • Name: Allow device name in Diagnostic Data
      • Description: Allows device name in Diagnostic Data.
      • OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/System/AllowDeviceNameInDiagnosticData
      • Data type: Integer
      • Value: 1
    6. Add a setting to Allow Update Compliance processing; this policy is required for Update Compliance:
      • Name: Allow Update Compliance Processing
      • Description: Opts device data into Update Compliance processing. Required to see data.
      • OMA-URI: ./Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/System/AllowUpdateComplianceProcessing
      • Data type: Integer
      • Value: 16
  7. Proceed through the next set of tabs Scope tags, Assignments, and Applicability Rules to assign the configuration profile to devices you wish to enroll.
  8. Review and select Create.

Deploy the configuration script

The Update Compliance Configuration Script is an important component of properly enrolling devices in Update Compliance, though it isn't strictly necessary. It checks to ensure that devices have the required services running and checks connectivity to the endpoints detailed in the section on Manually configuring devices for Update Compliance. You can deploy the script as a Win32 app. For more information, see Win32 app management in Microsoft Intune.

When you deploy the configuration script as a Win32 app, you won't be able to retrieve the results of logs on the device without having access to the device, or saving results of the logs to a shared filesystem. We recommend deploying the script in Pilot mode to a set of devices that you do have access to, or have a way to access the resultant log output the script provides, with as similar of a configuration profile as other devices which will be enrolled to Update Compliance, and analyzing the logs for any potential issues. Following this, you can deploy the configuration script in Deployment mode as a Win32 app to all Update Compliance devices.
