Renombrar dispositivos desde un CSV
Cambia en bloque el nombre de computadoras Windows administradas con la acción remota setDeviceName de Intune, a partir de un CSV con el nombre actual y el nuevo.

Ejemplo en México
Cadena de tiendas de conveniencia en Hermosillo, 220 personas
La gerencia cambió la convención de nombres para identificar sucursal y tipo de computadora y hay 80 computadoras con nombres genéricos.
.\rename-devices-from-csv.ps1 -CsvPath ".\renombrar.csv" -WhatIfLa vista previa confirma que 80 nombres son válidos y las computadoras existen. Tras ejecutarlo, las computadoras toman el nombre nuevo al reiniciar.
Cómo implementarlo
- Crea un CSV con las columnas DeviceName (nombre actual en Intune) y NewName.
- Cuida los nombres nuevos: máximo 15 caracteres, solo letras, números y guiones, y no solo dígitos.
- Ejecuta con -CsvPath y -WhatIf (o -DryRun "true") para validar nombres y computadoras sin enviar nada.
- Ejecuta sin simulación; el cambio se aplica en el siguiente contacto de la computadora y suele requerir reinicio.

.TITLE
Rename Devices from CSV
.SYNOPSIS
Bulk-renames Intune Windows devices from a CSV mapping file using the setDeviceName remote action.
.DESCRIPTION
This script reads a CSV file with DeviceName and NewName columns and triggers the
Intune setDeviceName remote action for each matching Windows device. Every rename
supports -WhatIf preview, name validation catches illegal computer names before
any action is sent, and results are summarized per device. Devices are renamed on
their next check-in; Windows devices typically need a restart for the new name to
fully apply.
.TAGS

.VERSION
1.3
.CHANGELOG
1.3 - Added a portal-safe DryRun mode for Azure Automation rename previews
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
.\rename-devices-from-csv.ps1 -CsvPath ".\renames.csv" -WhatIf
Previews all renames without sending any action
.EXAMPLE
.\rename-devices-from-csv.ps1 -CsvPath ".\renames.csv"
Renames all devices listed in the CSV (columns: DeviceName,NewName)
.EXAMPLE
.\rename-devices-from-csv.ps1 -CsvContent $csvContent
Uses CSV text supplied at runtime, which is suitable for Azure Automation
.EXAMPLE
.\rename-devices-from-csv.ps1 -CsvContent $csvContent -DryRun "true"
Validates devices and proposed names without sending a rename action
.NOTES
- Requires Microsoft.Graph.Authentication module
- CSV must contain the columns DeviceName (current Intune device name) and NewName
- Windows computer names: max 15 characters, letters/digits/hyphens, not all digits
- The rename applies at next device check-in; a restart completes it on Windows
- setDeviceName requires the DeviceManagementManagedDevices.PrivilegedOperations.All scope
- Uses beta Graph endpoints because the setDeviceName action is exposed there for all platforms
- Local interactive sign-in uses the MgGraphCommunity module to avoid the Graph SDK's mandatory WAM broker on Windows
