How to configure the Intune Company Portal apps, Company Portal website, and Intune app

The Company Portal apps, Company Portal website, and Intune app on Android are where users access company data and can do common tasks. Common task may include enrolling devices, installing apps, and locating information (such as for assistance from your IT department). Additionally, they allow users to securely access company resources. The end-user experience provides several different pages, such as Home, Apps, App details, Devices, and Device details. To quickly find apps within the Company Portal, you can filter the apps on the Apps page.

Note

The Company Portal supports Configuration Manager applications. This feature allows end users to see both Configuration Manager and Intune deployed applications in the Company Portal for co-managed customers. This new version of the Company Portal will display Configuration Manager deployed apps for all co-managed customers. This support will help administrators consolidate their different end user portal experiences. For more information, see Use the Company Portal app on co-managed devices.

The minimum supported version of the iOS Company Portal app is v5.2311.1. If users are running an older version, they will be prompted for an update at login.

Customizing the user experience

By customizing the end-user experience, you will help to provide a familiar and helpful experience for your end users. To do this, sign in as an Intune administrator. Navigate to the Microsoft Intune admin center and select Tenant Administration > Customization where you can either edit the default policy or create up to 10 user group targeted policies. Note that targeting policies to device groups is not supported. These settings will apply to the Company Portal apps, Company Portal website, and Intune app on Android.

Branding

The following table provides the branding customization details for the end-user experience:

Field name More information
Organization name This name is displayed throughout the messaging in the end-user experience. It can be set to display in headers as well using the Show in header setting. Max length is 40 characters.
Color Choose Standard to choose from five standard colors. Choose Custom to select a specific color based on a hex code value.
Theme color Set theme color to show across end-user experience. We'll automatically set the text color to black or white so that it's most visible on top of your selected theme color.
Show in header Select whether the header in the end-user experiences should display the Organization logo and name, the Organization logo only, or the Organization name only. The preview boxes below will only show the logos, not the name.
Upload logo for theme color background Upload the logo you want to show on top of your selected theme color. For the best appearance, upload a logo with a transparent background. You can see how this will look in the preview box below the setting.

Recommended image height: Greater than 72 px
Maximum file size: 750KB
File type: PNG, JPG, or JPEG

Upload logo for white or light background Upload the logo you want to show on top of white or light-colored backgrounds. For the best appearance, upload a logo with a transparent background. You can see how this will look on a white background in the preview box below the setting.

Recommended image height: Greater than 72 px
Maximum file size: 750KB
File type: PNG, JPG, or JPEG

Upload brand image Upload an image that reflects your organization's brand.

  • Recommended image width: Greater than 1125 px
  • Maximum image size: 1.3 MB
  • File type: PNG, JPG, or JPEG
  • It is displayed in these locations:
    • iOS/iPadOS Company Portal: Background image on the user's profile page.
    • Windows Company Portal: Background image on the user's profile page.
    • Company Portal website: Background image on the user's profile page.
    • Android Intune app: In the drawer and as a background image on the user's profile page.

Note

When a user is installing an iOS/iPadOS application from the Company Portal they will receive a prompt. This occurs when the iOS/iPadOS app is linked to the app store, linked to a volume-purchase program (VPP), or linked to a line-of-business (LOB) app. The prompt allows the users to accept the action or allow management of the app. The prompt will display your company name, or when your company name is unavailable, Company Portal will be displayed.

Brand image best practices

The right brand image can enhance the user's trust by presenting a strong sense of your organization's brand. Here are some tips you may want to consider for acquiring, choosing, and optimizing the image for the display locations.

  • Reach out to your marketing or art department. They may already have an approved set of brand images. They may also be able to help you optimize images as needed.
  • Consider both landscape and portrait composition. The image should have sufficient background surrounding the focal point. The image may be cropped differently based on device size, orientation, and platform.
  • Avoid using a generic, stock image. The image should reflect your organization's brand and feel familiar to users. If you don't have one, it's better to not use one than use a generic one that has no meaning to your user.
  • Remove unnecessary metadata. Image file can come with metadata such as camera profile, geo location, title, caption, and so on. Use an image optimization tool to strip out this information to maintain quality while meeting file size limit.

Configuration

You can configure the Company Portal experience specifically for enrollment, privacy, notifications, device categories, app sources, and self-service actions.

Enrollment

The following table provides enrollment-specific configuration details:

Field name Maximum length More information
Device enrollment N/A Specify if and how users should be prompted to enroll into mobile device management. For more information, see Device enrollment setting options.

Device enrollment setting options

Support for the device enrollment setting requires end users have these Company Portal versions:

  • Company Portal on iOS/iPadOS: version 4.4 or later
  • Company Portal on Android: version 5.0.4715.0 or later

Important

The following settings do not apply to iOS/iPadOS devices configured to enroll with Automated Device Enrollment. Regardless of how these setting are configured, iOS/iPadOS devices configured to enroll with Automated Device Enrollment will enroll during the out of box flow and users will be prompted to sign in when they launch the Company Portal.

The following settings do apply to Android devices configured with Samsung Knox Mobile Enrollment (KME). If a device has been configured for KME and device enrollment is set to Unavailable, the device will not be able to enroll during the out of box flow.

For the Android Company Portal app, if Intune detects that the user's device is set up for app protection policies without enrollment, the user will not get prompted to enroll in the Company Portal, even if the device enrollment setting is configured to prompt enrollment. This applies to all Android device types except Surface Duo devices.

Device enrollment options Description Checklist prompts Notification Device details status App visibility (for an app that requires enrollment)
Available, with prompts The default experience with prompts to enroll in all possible locations. Yes Yes Yes Yes

Device categories

You can allow or block the device category prompt in Intune Company Portal.

Field name Maximum length More information
Let users select device categories in the Company Portal N/A If your tenant has device categories set up, users on targeted devices are prompted to choose a category when they sign in to Company Portal. Select Block to hide the prompt across all platforms. Select Allow to show the prompt.

The category selection prompt goes away once someone chooses a category, and doesn't reappear. This setting is intended to be used with device categories. If there are no device categories in your tenant, no selection prompt will appear. For more information about creating device categories, see Categorize devices into groups.

App sources

You can choose which additional app sources will be shown in Company Portal.

Note

The Company Portal supports Configuration Manager applications. This feature allows end users to see both Configuration Manager and Intune deployed applications in the Company Portal for co-managed customers. For more information, see Use the Company Portal app on co-managed devices.

The following table provides app source specific configuration details:

Field name Maximum length More information
Microsoft Entra Enterprise Applications N/A Select Hide or Show to display Microsoft Entra Enterprise applications in the Company Portal for each end user. For more information, see App source setting options.

App source setting options

Note

The display of apps from the Configuration Manager Applications app source is only displayed in the Windows Company Portal. However, the display of apps from either the Microsoft Entra Enterprise Applications app source or the Office Online Applications app source are displayed in the Windows Company Portal and the Company Portal website.

You can hide or show Microsoft Entra Enterprise applications, Office Online applications, and Configuration Manager applications in the Company Portal for each end user. Show will cause the Company Portal to display the entire applications catalog from the chosen Microsoft service(s) assigned to the user. Microsoft Entra Enterprise applications are registered and assigned via the Microsoft Intune admin center. Office Online applications are assigned using the licensing controls available in the M365 Admin Center. In the Microsoft Intune admin center, select Tenant administration > Customization to find this configuration setting. By default, each additional app source will be set to Hide.

Customizing Remove and Reset device actions

You can customize visibility of the Remove and Reset self-service device actions for Windows and iOS devices that are shown to end users across platforms in the Company Portal app, Company Portal website, and Intune app on Android. To prevent users from removing or resetting corporate Windows and iOS devices, you can hide these actions in Tenant Administration > Customization.

The following actions are available:

  • Hide Remove button on corporate Windows devices. (This setting will always show as disabled because the Remove button for corporate Windows devices is always hidden.)
  • Hide Reset button on corporate Windows devices.
  • Hide Remove button on corporate iOS/iPadOS devices.
  • Hide Reset button on corporate iOS/iPadOS devices.

Note

These actions can be used to restrict device actions in the Company Portal app and website and do not implement any device restriction policies. To restrict users from performing factory reset or MDM removal from settings, you must configure device restriction policies.

Also, these customizations are only available in the default Customization policy, not in the group targeted Customization policies.

Device compliance status in Company Portal website

End users can see the compliance status of their devices from the Company Portal website. End users can navigate to the Company Portal website and select the Devices page to see device status. Devices will be listed with a status of Can access company resources, Checking access, or Can't access company resources. For related information, see Manage apps from the Company Portal website.

Opening Web Company Portal applications

For Web Company Portal applications, if the end user has the Company Portal application installed, the end users will see a dialog box asking how they want to open the application when opening outside of the browser. If the app is not in the path of the Company Portal, then the Company Portal will open the homepage. If the app is in the path, then the Company Portal will open the specific app.

Upon selecting the Company Portal, the user will be directed to the corresponding page in the application when the URI path is one of the following:

  • /apps - The Web Company Portal will open the Apps page that lists all of the apps.
  • /apps/[appID] - The Web Company Portal will open the Details page of the corresponding app.
  • The URI path is different or unexpected - The Web Company Portal home page will be displayed.

If the user does not have the Company Portal app installed, the user will be taken to the Web Company Portal.

Note

To improve page load performance on the Company Portal website, app icons will now load in batches. End users may temporarily see a placeholder icon for some of their applications while loading the Company Portal website.

For feedback related information, see Configure feedback settings for Company Portal and Microsoft Intune apps.

Company Portal and Apple Setup Assistant for iOS/iPadOS

For iOS/iPadOS devices running 13.0 and later, when creating an Automated Device Enrollment profile, you can now choose a new authentication method: Setup Assistant with modern authentication. This method provides all the security from authenticating with the Company Portal but avoids the issue of leaving end users stuck on a device that they can't use while the Company Portal installs on the device. The user has to authenticate using Microsoft Entra credentials during the setup assistant screens. This will require an additional Microsoft Entra login post-enrollment in the Company Portal app to gain access to corporate resources protected by Conditional Access and for Intune to assess device compliance. The correct Company Portal version will automatically be sent down as a required app to the device for iOS/iPadOS, which we recommend choosing a VPP token for from the enrollment profile.

Enrollment is completed once the user lands on the home screen, and users can freely use the device for resources not protected by Conditional Access. User affinity is established when users complete the additional Microsoft Entra login into the Company Portal app on the device. If the tenant has multi-factor authentication turned on for these devices or users, the users will be asked to complete multi-factor authentication during enrollment during Setup Assistant. Multi-factor authentication is not required, but it is available for this authentication method within Conditional Access if needed.

Company Portal derived credentials for iOS/iPadOS devices

Intune supports Personal Identity Verification (PIV) and Common Access Card (CAC) Derived Credentials in partnership with credential providers DISA Purebred, Entrust, and Intercede. End users will go through additional steps post-enrollment of their iOS/iPadOS device to verify their identity in the Company Portal application. Derived Credentials will be enabled for users by first setting up a credential provider for your tenant, then targeting a profile that uses Derived Credentials to users or devices.

Note

The user will see instructions about derived credentials based on the link that you have specified via Intune.

For more information about derived credentials for iOS/iPadOS devices, see Use derived credentials in Microsoft Intune.

Dark Mode for the Company Portal

Dark Mode is available for the iOS/iPadOS, macOS, and Windows Company Portal. Users can download apps, manage their devices, and get IT support in the color scheme of their choice based on device settings. The iOS/iPadOS, macOS, and Windows Company Portal will automatically match the end user's device settings for dark or light mode.

Windows Company Portal keyboard shortcuts

End users can trigger navigation, app, and device actions in the Windows Company Portal using keyboard shortcuts (accelerators).

The following keyboard shortcuts are available in the Windows Company Portal app.

Area Description Keyboard shortcut
Navigation menu Navigation Alt+M
Home Alt+H
All apps Alt+A

User self-service device actions from the Company Portal

Users can perform actions on their local or remote devices via the Company Portal app, Company Portal website, or the Intune app on Android. The actions that a user can perform vary based on device platform and configuration. In all cases, the remote device actions can only be performed by device's Primary User.

Available self-service device actions include the following:

  • Retire – Removes the device from Intune Management. In the company portal app and website, this shows as Remove.
  • Wipe – This action initiates a device reset. In the company portal website this is shown as Reset, or Factory Reset in the iOS/iPadOS Company Portal App.
  • Rename – This action changes the device name that the user can see in the Company Portal. It does not change the local device name, only the listing in the Company Portal.
  • Sync – This action initiates a device check-in with the Intune service. This shows as Check Status in the Company Portal.
  • Remote Lock – This locks the device, requiring a PIN to unlock it.
  • Reset Passcode – This action is used to reset device passcode. On iOS/iPadOS devices the passcode will be removed and the end user will be required to enter a new code in settings. On supported Android devices, a new passcode is generated by Intune and temporarily displayed in the Company Portal.
  • Key Recovery – This action is used to recover a personal recovery key for encrypted macOS devices from the Company Portal website.

To customize the available user self-service actions, see Customizing user self-service actions for the Company Portal.

App logs

App users can share their logs with you when requesting help through the Intune Company Portal app or Microsoft Intune app. If you're using Azure Government, users get to select their sharing preference when they initiate the sharing process. If you're not using Azure Government, user-submitted logs are sent directly to Microsoft support or the admin center.

You can download user-submitted mobile app diagnostics in the admin center for the Android, AOSP, and Windows versions of the Company Portal app. To download user-submitted logs, go to Troubleshooting + support > Diagnostics. For more information, see Use the troubleshooting dashboard to help users at your company.

Note

Consistent with Microsoft and Apple policy, we do not sell any data collected by our service to any third parties for any reason.

Company Portal app notifications

The Company Portal app can store, as well as display, push notifications sent to your users' devices from the Microsoft Intune admin center. Users who have opted in to receive Company Portal push notifications can view and manage the customized stored messages that you send to their devices in the Notifications tab of the Company Portal.

Note

Users must updated to recent versions of the Android Company Portal (version 5.0.5291.0, released in October 2021) or Android Intune app (version 2021.09.04, released in September 2021) to receive custom notifications on Android devices. If users do not update prior to Intune's November (2111) service release and they are sent a custom notification, they will instead receive a notification telling them to update their app to view the notification. Once they update their app, they will see the message sent by your organization in the Notifications section in the app.

Notifications from the iOS/iPadOS Company Portal app are now delivered to devices using the default Apple sound, rather than being delivered silently. To turn the notification sound off from the iOS/iPadOS Company Portal app, select Settings > Notifications > Comp Portal and select the Sound toggle.

For more information about notifications, see Receive a custom notification.
