    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Sync-CMAssetIntelligenceCatalog cmdlet synchronizes the local Asset Intelligence catalog with System Center Online to retrieve the latest software title categorization. The Asset Intelligence catalog contains categorization and identification information for software titles. System Center Online accepts only one manual synchronization request in a 12-hour period.

Configuration Manager updates the asset Intelligence catalog by using the Asset Intelligence synchronization point site system role. You must install an Asset Intelligence synchronization point site system role before you can synchronize the Asset Intelligence catalog with System Center Online. You can use the Add-CMAssetIntelligenceSynchronizationPoint cmdlet to install an Asset Intelligence synchronization point site system role.

When you manually request catalog synchronization with System Center Online, it could take 15 minutes or longer to complete the synchronization process with System Center Online.

Note

Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
