Microsoft Intune Integration with SysAid

SysAid’s Microsoft Intune integration allows you to automatically and securely pull information from your Intune Inventory to SysAid. 

This provides centralized access to asset information; enhancing your capability to quickly service the devices in your network and improve efficiency as part of the ITSM process. 

Requirements:

SysAid Cloud

How it works

Once the Intune and SysAid are connected, all the devices in Intune (workstations, smartphones) data will be imported to SysAid.

During the import process, SysAid’s system matches assets according to model and serial number:

• Newly imported models and serial numbers will show “Intune” as their source and display all the information imported from Intune

• Models and serial numbers that already exist in SysAid’s database will be enriched with additional information from Intune, but still have “Agent” or “WMI” as their source - to avoid asset duplication.

You can also choose whether to run a daily sync to import data from Intune or do it manually through the Intune addon page in SysAid.

Imported fields

When you import data from Intune, the integration pulls and maps the field values from Microsoft Intunes to SysAid asset management as follows:

Adding the Intune addon

To add the Intune addon to your SysAid account:

1. In SysAid, navigate to Settings >  Integrations > Marketplace.

2. Select Intune from the addon cards.

3. Click Get it. You will be redirected to the My apps page where you’ll see Intune.

4. Click the gear icon.

Now you can go ahead and connect the apps - keep your SysAid account in one tab and open a new tab to connect to your Azure portal.

Connecting Intune and SysAid

To connect the Intune and SysAid, you’ll need:

1. A Tenant ID

2. A Client ID

3. A Secret key

Let’s walk you through where to find the relevant details in Azure.

1. Tenant name

1. In Azure, under Azure services, choose Microsoft Entra ID.

2. In the Overview section, copy the Tenant ID and paste it into the Tenant Name field in SysAid.

2. Client ID

1. In Azure, navigate to Manage > App Registrations.

2. Click + New Registration.

3. In the Name field, enter a name for the application, for example, "SysAid-Intune".

4. Keep the default setting and click Register.

5. Scroll down and click View API permissions.

6. Click + Add a permission > Microsoft Graph > Application permissions.

7. Add the following permissions:

   • DeviceManagementManagedDevices.Read.All

   • DeviceManagementConfiguration.Read.All

   • Device.Read.All

8. Click Grant admin consent for SysAid.
   

   9. Go to App registration and click on the newly created app.

   10. In the Overview section, copy the Application (client) ID and paste it into the Client ID field in SysAid.

3. Secret key

1. In Azure, navigate to Manage > App registration and click on the newly created app.

2. Go to Manage > Certificates & secrets.

3. Click + New client secret.

4. Add a description and choose the expiration date

5. Click Add.

6. Copy the Secret Value and paste it into the Secret Key field in SysAid.

7. Click Add.

8. Click Test Connection to verify that you are connected to Intune.

9. Once the test is complete, Intune asset data will be imported to SysAid within 24 hours. Please do not edit or change the integration details until the sync is complete.

10. Lastly, turn on the integration toggle. You can check the scheduled run to create a sync that runs once every 24 hours and ensure the asset data is up to date.

Please note:

You can check the last time an import ran by checking the Last Updated field in the Intune addon page in SysAid.

Viewing Intune asset data in SysAid

Once your Intune integration is up and running, your Intune information is integrated with SysAid asset management. Here are a few places where you can view your Intune data.

Asset list

The imported Intune devices are displayed in the asset list. In addition, the integration allows you to add Intune-specific columns to the asset list view: Intune ID and Additional Data from Intune.

You can view all the devices that came from Intune by filtering the asset list by “Source is Intune”.

Please note:

This filtering will only show newly added devices. Models and serial numbers that already exist in SysAid’s database will be enriched with additional information from Intune, but still have “Agent” or “WMI” as their source - to avoid asset duplication.

When looking at a specific asset, you’ll see a new field named Additional data from Intune which is populated with a lot of additional information.
