Hi,

Have some questions regarding how to add machines to autopilot.

Customer1
This customer has 50 clients, all of them are only Azure AD Registered. This client we would now like to join Endpoint Manager, and we would like an easy way for them to register their devices in Autopilot. These users are located on home office, so how could we as easy as possible have to registered in Autopilot ?

  1. Give the user the possibility to register devices, and make a guide to have them run Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo.ps1
  2. Take over the computer with for example Teamviewer and run Get-WindowsAutoPilotInfo.ps1 with Global Admin privileges ?

Customer2
This customer has 50 clients, its a hybrid solution, but most of them are now working from home. They do not have any VPN so they have not been to the office for a while. So running a script from a GPO and have that script for example upload the csv files to //dc01/share would not work since they do not have clear line of sight.
This customer is managed with a 3 part application, so we are able to upload scripts to the customer. What we would like here is that the script is run in the background and the HWID is automatically uploaded to a storage blob we have created, is there anyone out there that has this working ?

How do you guys for example roll out Autopilot on 100 devices when they are not onsite.... ?

Thanks for any comments

/Andre

    Whichever method works best for you and your users -- all are roughly equivalent.

    Personal vs. Corporate ownersip for Windows has almost no impact and this is only a temporary means to and end to enroll the devices in Autopilot so that they can wiped and reloaded.

    Do the users have local admin permissions? If so, have the users manually enroll the systems (as they exist today) in Intune and configure Intune to register the devices with Autopilot. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/autopilot/enrollment-autopilot
