Create your own Microsoft Intune monitoring solution with Logic Apps

Do you want to get a notification when an Autopilot object doesn’t have a deployment profile assigned? Did you ever miss a new Intune service health message when you were already troubleshooting the issue for hours? Or did you ever run out of Microsoft Intune licenses without knowing it?
A lot of information is available in different Microsoft portals, but who pays attention to all this information during the day? Don’t we just want to get a notification via Teams or email when something important is happening?
As Microsoft doesn’t provide such a monitoring and notification solution, let`s build it ourselves!
During this session, we’ll have a look at Azure Logic Apps to build our own low-code Intune monitoring solution. We’ll have a look at the permissions and authentication. We’ll walk through a couple of monitoring examples. And we’ll discuss the different options for sending alerts.
