Corregir el usuario principal de los dispositivos Windows
Compara el usuario principal de cada equipo Windows con el último usuario que inició sesión y, con -Apply, actualiza el usuario principal cuando no coinciden.
Ejemplo en México
Contact center en Mérida, 400 personas
Muchas laptops se inscribieron con la cuenta del técnico que las preparó, por lo que las políticas y apps por usuario llegan a la persona equivocada.
.\fix-primary-user-assignment.ps1 -Apply "true" -WhatIfUna lista de equipos con el usuario actual y el propuesto. Tras revisarla, TI aplica el cambio y las apps de usuario empiezan a llegar a la persona correcta.
Cómo implementarlo
- Corre el script sin parámetros para ver los equipos cuyo usuario principal no coincide con el real.
- Revisa el listado: descarta equipos compartidos y los inscritos por personal de TI.
- Ejecuta con -Apply "true" -WhatIf para ver los cambios propuestos.
- Aplica con -Apply "true" y guarda el CSV (-ExportToCsv "true") por si debes revertir a mano.

.TITLE
Fix Primary User Assignment
.SYNOPSIS
Aligns each Windows device's Intune primary user with the user who actually logs on to it.
.DESCRIPTION
This script compares every Windows device's Intune primary user with the most
recent logged-on user reported by the device (usersLoggedOn). Devices where the
primary user differs from the actual user - shared-device handovers, re-imaged
machines, IT-technician enrollments - are reported, and with -Apply the primary
user is updated via the users/`$ref assignment. A correct primary user matters for
self-service portal access, user-targeted policy resolution, and license-based app
delivery.

.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
.\fix-primary-user-assignment.ps1
Reports devices whose primary user does not match the last logged-on user
.EXAMPLE
.\fix-primary-user-assignment.ps1 -Apply "true" -WhatIf
Previews the primary user changes without applying them
.EXAMPLE
.\fix-primary-user-assignment.ps1 -Apply "true"
Updates the primary user on all mismatched devices
.NOTES
- Requires Microsoft.Graph.Authentication module
- Only Windows devices are processed; usersLoggedOn is not reliably populated on other platforms
- Devices without logged-on user data or without a resolvable user are skipped
- Uses beta Graph endpoints because usersLoggedOn is not exposed on v1.0
- Local interactive sign-in uses the MgGraphCommunity module to avoid the Graph SDK's mandatory WAM broker on Windows
