Control advanced power settings with PowerCfg & PowerShell

One of the most common questions I get asked about Intune & Modern Device Management is “Would it be possible to do X with Intune?”

With the native support to deploy and run PowerShell scripts in either user or system contexts, this allows my answer to always be “Yes! We can do anything you want - you just need to decide on how much time you wish to invest in the solution.”

Case in point - I was recently asked if it were possible to configure the power settings of a fleet of laptops to change the behaviour of the device when the lid is closed while on power.

Monitor changes to Intune using Azure Functions, GraphAPI & PowerShell

In my last post, I showed you how to move a very common task - authenticating into the GraphAPI, up into an Azure Function App. Now that our authentication function has been turned into a REST Endpoint, we can stop focusing on how we get authenticated and start doing some really interesting stuff inside the environment. Case in point, myself and a colleague @OnPremCloudGuy were wondering if we could create a solution to monitor the Intune configuration of a tenant for any changes that might get made without our approval.
