Hi, I've created a wifi profile to intune, (adding wifi ssid/credentials) and it applies fine to devices that have a wifi card. Other devices that don't have wifi give a configuration error "0x87d1fde8", remediation failed. Is there a way to only apply the wifi profile if the device has a wifi card? That way I wont get a list of devices with profile errors

    @JayBee2 Thanks for posting in pur Q&A.

    For the Remediation error, if the policy has been applied to the client device, you can just ignore it. So, it is suggested to check if the wifi profile is deployed successfully. We can refer to the following article:
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/mem/intune/troubleshoot-wi-fi-profiles#windows

    If you want to only apply the wifi profile to the device which has a wifi card. It is suggested to create a device group included these devices and then deploy the wifi profile to this group.

    If there is anything unclear, feel free to let us know.

    Thanks for the response @Lu Dai-MSFT
    The profile doesn't apply because the device has no wifi card. That's fine. I just don't want to see the error in the management console. The profile shouldn't apply.

    At the moment I only see the option to create an exclusion group for non wifi devices. But that's manual labor, so I'm looking to automate.
