<# .TITLE Get App Assignment Conflicts .SYNOPSIS Detects conflicting Intune app assignments: required versus uninstall, and groups that are both included and excluded. .DESCRIPTION This script analyzes every Intune app's assignments and reports conflicts that produce unpredictable install behavior: the same app targeted with required and uninstall intent, the same group both included and excluded on one app, and the same group receiving the app with different intents. Group names are resolved so the report is directly actionable. These conflicts commonly appear after mergers of app deployments or copy-pasted assignment changes and are hard to spot in the portal. .TAGS Apps,Reporting .MINROLE Intune Administrator .PERMISSIONS DeviceManagementApps.Read.All,Group.Read.All .AUTHOR Ugur Koc .VERSION 1.2 .CHANGELOG 1.2 - Added Azure Automation contract validation, portal-safe boolean parameters, beta Graph endpoints, and terminating paging errors 1.1 - Azure Automation now records script progress, outcomes, and summaries in job history 1.0 - Initial release .LASTUPDATE 2026-07-30 .EXAMPLE .\get-app-assignment-conflicts.ps1 Reports all app assignment conflicts in the console .EXAMPLE .\get-app-assignment-conflicts.ps1 -ExportToCsv "true" Exports the conflict report to a timestamped CSV file .NOTES - Requires Microsoft.Graph.Authentication module - Required + available for the same group is reported as informational, not a conflict (required wins by design) - Nested group membership is not evaluated; only direct assignment targets are compared - Uses beta Graph endpoints for the app assignment surface - Local interactive sign-in uses the MgGraphCommunity module to avoid the Graph SDK's mandatory WAM broker on Windows #> [CmdletBinding()] param( [Parameter(Mandatory = $false, HelpMessage = "Export results to CSV")] [ValidateSet("true", "false", "1", "0", '$true', '$false')] [string]$ExportToCsv, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false, HelpMessage = "Output path for exports")] [string]$OutputPath = ".", [Parameter(Mandatory = $false, HelpMessage = "Force module installation without prompting")] [ValidateSet("true", "false", "1", "0", '$true', '$false')] [string]$ForceModuleInstall ) # Normalize the local module-install override for Azure Automation parameter binding. $forceModuleInstallRaw = [string]$ForceModuleInstall Remove-Variable -Name ForceModuleInstall if ([string]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace($forceModuleInstallRaw)) { $ForceModuleInstall = $false } elseif ($forceModuleInstallRaw.Trim().ToLowerInvariant() -in @("true", "1", '$true')) { $ForceModuleInstall = $true } elseif ($forceModuleInstallRaw.Trim().ToLowerInvariant() -in @("false", "0", '$false')) { $ForceModuleInstall = $false } else { throw "Parameter 'ForceModuleInstall' accepts only true, false, 1, 0, $true, or $false." } # Azure Automation supplies portal parameter values as strings.
