7.1	15	Microsoft Intune is a cloud-based solution that helps you manage your mobile devices. It allows you to remotely manage devices, secure access or even lock them down. With the ACMP Intune Connector, you can inventory the devices from Intune in ACMP and send the most important actions to the devices from ACMP.
1.1	16
7.1	17	= Requirements for using the ACMP Intune Connector =
1.1	18
7.1	19	To use the ACMP Intune Connector, the following requirements must be met:
1.1	20
7.1	21	* You need a user account with the appropriate permissions for Microsoft Azure Active Directory
	22	* There must be a connection between AESB and ACMP. AESB must be available for this and the necessary details of the [[SICS connection>>doc:\|\|anchor="H1.ACMPconsole:CheckSICSconnectioninACMP"]] must be stored in ACMP
	23	* AESB must be at least version 1.8
	24	* You need a working internet connection, as Intune is a cloud solution and requires a network connection to work.
	25	* A running instance of Intune
1.1	26
7.1	27	= Preparations in Azure Active Directory =
1.1	28
7.1	29	To enable the ACMP Intune Connector to access the Intune API, you must first register an enterprise application in Azure Active Directory and grant the required permissions within those applications.
1.1	30
7.1	31	== Register the Enterprise Application ==
1.1	32
7.1	33	First, sign in to the [[Azure AD (Active Directory)>>https://aad.portal.azure.com/]] and navigate to Azure Active Directory in the Overview. Click the //Manage// > //Application// //Registrations// tab and create a new application registration.

7.1	139	Later, during the initial setup of the ACMP Intune Connector, you have to specify an authentication type in the AESB console. You can choose from two methods supported by the Microsoft Client Credentials Provider: //Certificate// or //Client Secret Key//.
1.1	140
	141	{{aagon.infobox}}
7.1	142	The procedure differs depending on the authentication type selected. Read below to find out what you need to consider for each method.
1.1	143	{{/aagon.infobox}}
	144
7.1	145	=== Upload certificate ===
1.1	146
	147	{{aagon.infobox}}
7.1	148	Due to the higher level of security, Microsoft recommends that you use a certificate as your credential.
1.1	149	{{/aagon.infobox}}
	150
7.1	151	Certificates can be used as an authentication method to log in to Azure Active Directory in the AESB console. A certificate always consists of a public and private part, where the public key is loaded directly into Azure AD. The private part is used in the AESB console. This certificate pair needs to be generated beforehand. Read how to generate a certificate via [[Microsoft>>url:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/configure-ssl-certificate?tabs=apex%2Cportal]] or[[ Open SSL>>url:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6307886/how-to-create-pfx-file-from-certificate-and-private-key]].

1.1	165
	166	{{aagon.infobox}}
7.1	167	Please note that only .cer, .pem and .crt file types are supported when uploading a certificate.

7.1	179	=== Adding a secret client key ===
1.1	180
7.1	181	The secret client key is a string of characters used by the enterprise application as an authentication key or proof of identity when requesting the token. To do this, go to the Permissions area within the registered application (//Security// > //Permissions//) and click the Application Registration link. Navigate to //Certificates// & //Secrets//. In the details, click the //Secret Client Keys// tab and create a new key.

1.1	208
7.1	209	Before you can use Intune in ACMP, you need to do some preliminary work in the ACMP and AESB consoles.
1.1	210
7.1	211	== 1. ACMP console: Check SICS connection in ACMP ==
1.1	212
7.1	213	It is necessary that you have a working SICS connection in ACMP. To do this, go to //System// > //Settings// > //ACMP Server// > //SICS Connection//. First tick the box to enable the connection. Then enter the host and port, as well as the user name and password for the operator. You specified the corresponding operator during the installation of the AESB, which you must also specify here. Specify whether to attempt an unencrypted connection if SSL/TLS fails. Then test the connection.
1.1	214
7.1	215	Also tick the Public API access rights box to grant access. You can now save your settings. ACMP and SICS are now connected to each other.

1.1	227
7.1	228	Now go to the AESB console. From the Dashboard, navigate to the //Products// menu item. In the overview you will find a list of all packages available for installation or updates. Select //ACMP Intune Adapter// and click //Install// either in the quick selection bar or directly in the fields. A new window will open and the installation will begin.

	238
7.1	239	The first step tells you what you need to have already done to successfully install the Intune Adapter: You need a configured and working Microsoft Intune instance and a working ACMP SICS connection. In the second step of the installation wizard, you have the option to assign a template name at the top of the pages.
1.1	240
7.1	241	Under //Intune Connector Configuration//, you can set basic settings for the Intune Connector. Under ACMP Server ID, you need to specify the server to which the changes will be sent. If you enter an asterisk, the changes will be sent to all ACMP servers that have a SICS connection and whose connection information is identical to the information you entered in step //[[1. ACMP console: Check SICS connection in ACMP>>doc:\|\|anchor="H1.ACMPconsole:CheckSICSconnectioninACMP"]]//. You can also specify the name of the workflow instance under which the settings are to be sent. You can do this under //Ondemand definition name//.
1.1	242
7.1	243	In the //Intune Configuration// menu item, you can now use one of the two login methods: the secret client key or a certificate.
1.1	244
7.1	245	=== Option 1: Certificate authentication method: ===
1.1	246
	247	{{aagon.infobox}}
7.1	248	Microsoft recommends the certificate authentication method.
1.1	249	{{/aagon.infobox}}
	250
7.1	251	Configuring Intune with a certificate is very similar to the //secret client key// authentication method. You only need to upload the certificate and enter its password.
1.1	252
7.1	253	Select //Certificate// as the authentication type. Enter the certificate to be used in the Certificate field. Only .pfx files can be uploaded. Then enter the certificate password, if available. Also enter the Application ID (Client) (the ID is used to identify the user to Intune) and the Directory ID (Tenant) (it runs under the tenant) in the fields provided. Both strings can be found in the general information of the previously registered business application on the Azure AD pages.

1.1	311
7.1	312	The Intune adapter installation will begin in the background. When the installation is complete and all items have been successfully installed, you can click //Finish//. You will be returned to the AESB Console Overview page. There are several places in the AESB Console where you can check that the installation was successful and that all the required applications are available:
1.1	313
7.1	314	\|Navigation point\|Description
	315	\|Microservices\|Below the Supervisors & microservice instances, you will see the entries //IntuneConnector_1 //and //IntuneWorkflowEngine_1//.
	316	\|Workflows\|Within the Workflow engines & instances section, the entries //IntuneWorkflowEngine_1 //and //IntuneMobileDevices_1 //must be listed.
1.1	317
	318	{{aagon.infobox}}
7.1	319	You can also install the Intune Connector more than once. This allows you to use both the secret client key and the certificate as the authentication type. A dual installation is useful, for example, if you are using multiple ACMP servers and want the data to flow to them. Multiple installations will increment the microservices and workflow entries. In this case, you would have, for example, //IntuneWorkflowEngine_1//,// IntuneWorkflowEngine_2, and IntuneMobileDevices_1 and IntuneMobileDevices_2//.

7.1	324	Once you have set up the ACMP Intune Connector, devices are imported from Intune into ACMP. You can use this data in queries and reports, for example. You can also send some actions to the devices through ACMP.
