Upload the package to Microsoft Intune

Before uploading the package to the Microsoft Intune, a user must ensure the availability of a ready-made package. The package can be generated using the Packaging – Self Service or Packaging – Factory Service steps of the Project workflow. Learn more about how to package the application.

Note. Packages are available for upload from the Apptimized portal to Intune only after finishing the Packaging step (Self Service or Factory Service). In other words, the ready-made package that was imported to the project on the Import step (i.e., the Package step is skipped) is not available for upload to Intune.

Apptimized portal supports the One-To-One-Integration model (i.e., 1 Apptimized project can be integrated into 1 Client App on the Microsoft Intune).

The option to upload the package to Microsoft Intune is available under the Project menu > Dashboards > Portfolio > Select an application > Actions column > Push to Intune option.

Apptimized portal shows the following screen when successful:

The Intune apps list provides a user the information on the full list of applications from the Microsoft Intune portal available in the Apptimized portal.

The Intune apps list enables a user to manage applications from the Microsoft Intune portal without leaving the Apptimized portal.

The option to upload the package to the Microsoft Intune portal is available under the Add IntuneWin button. The application information screen appears when successful:
