Manage settings with an MDM provider (Surface Hub) | Microsoft Surface Hub provides an enterprise management solution to help IT administrators manage policies and business applications on these devices using a mobile device management (MDM) solution. | 18EB8464-6E22-479D-B0C3-21C4ADD168FE | mobile device management, MDM, manage policies | w10 | manage | library | surfacehub, mobility | TrudyHa | medium |
Manage settings with an MDM provider (Surface Hub)
Surface Hub and other Windows 10 devices allow IT administrators to manage settings and policies using a mobile device management (MDM) provider. A built-in management component communicates with the management server, so there is no need to install additional clients on the device. For more information, see Windows 10 mobile device management.
Surface Hub has been validated with Microsoft’s first-party MDM providers:
- On-premises MDM with System Center Configuration Manager (beginning in version 1602)
- Hybrid MDM with System Center Configuration Manager and Microsoft Intune
- Microsoft Intune standalone
You can also manage Surface Hubs using any third-party MDM provider that can communicate with Windows 10 using the MDM protocol.
Enroll a Surface Hub into MDM
You can enroll your Surface Hubs using automatic, bulk, or manual enrollment.
Note
You can join your Surface Hub to Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to manage admin groups on the device. However, Surface Hub does not currently support automatic enrollment to Microsoft Intune through Azure AD join. If your organization automatically enrolls Azure AD joined devices into Intune, you must disable this policy for Surface Hub before joining the device to Azure AD.
To disable automatic enrollment for Microsoft Intune
- In the Azure classic portal, navigate to the Active Directory node and select your directory.
- Click the Applications tab, then click Microsoft Intune.
- Under Manage devices for these users, click Groups.
- Click Select Groups, then select the groups of users you want to automatically enroll into Intune. Do not include accounts that are used to enroll Surface Hubs into Intune. 5. Click the checkmark button, then click Save.
Bulk enrollment
To configure bulk enrollment
- Surface Hub supports the Provisioning CSP for bulk enrollment into MDM. For more information, see Windows 10 bulk enrollment.
--OR-- - If you have an on-premises System Center Configuration Manager infrastructure, see How to bulk enroll devices with On-premises Mobile Device Management in System Center Configuration Manager.
Manual enrollment
You can manually enroll with an MDM using the Settings app on your Surface Hub.
To configure manual enrollment
- From your Surface Hub, open Settings.
- Type the device admin credentials when prompted.
- Select This device, and navigate to Device management.
- Under Device management, select + Device management.
- Follow the instructions in the dialog to connect to your MDM provider.
Manage Surface Hub settings with MDM
You can use MDM to manage some Surface Hub CSP settings. Depending on the MDM provider that you use, you may set these settings using a built-in user interface, or by deploying custom SyncML. Microsoft Intune and System Center Configuration Manager provide built-in experiences to help create policy templates for Surface Hub. Refer to documentation from your MDM provider to learn how to create and deploy SyncML.
Supported Surface Hub CSP settings
You can configure the Surface Hub settings in the following table using MDM. The table also tells if the setting is supported with Microsoft Intune, System Center Configuration Manager, or SyncML.
For more information, see SurfaceHub configuration service provider.

Example: Manage Surface Hub settings with Micosoft Intune
You can use Microsoft Intune to manage Surface Hub settings.
To create a configuration policy from a template
You'll use the Windows 10 Team general configuration policy as the template.
- On the Intune management portal, sign in with your Intune administrator account.
- On the left-hand navigation menu, click Policy.
- In the Overview page, click Add Policy.
- On Select a template for the new policy, expand Windows, select General Configuration (Windows 10 Team and later), and then click Create Policy.
- Configure your policy, then click Save Policy
- When prompted, click Yes to deploy your new policy to a user or device group. For more information, see Use groups to manage users and devices in Microsoft Intune.
To create a custom configuration policy
You’ll need to create a custom policy to manage settings that are not available in the template.
- On the Intune management portal, sign in with your Intune administrator account.
- On the left-hand navigation menu, click Policy.
- In the Overview page, click Add Policy.
- On Select a template for the new policy, expand Windows, select Custom Configuration (Windows 10 Desktop and Mobile and later), and then click Create Policy.
- Type a name and optional description for the policy.
- Under OMA-URI Settings, click Add.
- Complete the form to create a new setting, and then click OK.
- Repeat Steps 6 and 7 for each setting you want to configure with this policy.
- Once you're done, click Save Policy and deploy it to a user or device group.
Example: Manage Surface Hub settings with System Center Configuration Manager
System Center Configuration Manager supports managing modern devices that do not require the Configuration Manager client to manage them, including Surface Hub. If you already use System Center Configuration Manager to manage other devices in your organization, you can continue to use the Configuration Manager console as your single location for managing Surface Hubs.
Note
These instructions are based on the current branch of System Center Configuration Manager.
To create a configuration item for Surface Hub settings
- On the Assets and Compliance workspace of the Configuration Manager console, click Overview > Compliance Settings > Configuration Items.
