Intune Dashboard

A set of dashboards that give a graphical overview of the devices, applications, update policies and scripts in Intune. The dashboards only read from Intune; they do not change anything there.

Devices Applications Updates Scripts

1 Open the dashboard

The interface is found under the Status button in SoftwareCentral and contains a range of different dashboards that show a graphical overview over different datasets from Intune.

Click Status in the top bar. The Intune Dashboard opens with the Compliance Overview dashboard selected.

2 The layout

The dashboard has three parts: a menu on the left, the charts and grid in the middle, and the export buttons under the menu.

  • The menu on the left is a tab-style menu with the dashboards sorted into groups: Devices, Applications, Updates and Scripts. Click a dashboard to load it. Under the menu, a description of the selected dashboard is shown, followed by the export buttons.
  • The middle shows the charts and a grid with the data. Above the grid is a Search box. Use it to find items in the grid.
  • The bottom of some dashboards shows a historical graph over time.

3 The dashboards

Each dashboard is listed with what it shows and how to use its grid. The description on the left of the page repeats this for the dashboard you have open.

Devices

DashboardWhat it shows, and how to use it
Compliance OverviewA pie chart of all devices in Intune and their compliance state. In the grid you can search for one or more devices, a compliance state, an operating system or a manufacturer, so you can see the compliance of all devices from one manufacturer. The graph at the bottom shows the complete compliance over time. It does not change when you search.
Configuration ProfileA list of the configuration profiles in Intune. Search for a profile by name. Select one or more profiles in the grid, and the pie chart shows the combined statuses of the selected profiles. The graph at the bottom shows the complete configuration profile status overview over time.
OS OverviewTwo pie charts of all devices: one by operating system and one by the version of the operating system. Choose an operating system in the drop-down box to see the distribution over its versions. In the grid you can search by device name, compliance state, operating system or manufacturer, for example to find the non-compliant devices of one operating system.
Model OverviewTwo pie charts of all devices: one by manufacturer and one by model. Choose a manufacturer in the drop-down box to see the distribution over its models. In the grid you can search by device name, compliance state, operating system or manufacturer.

Applications

5 Export

The export buttons are under the description on the left.

ButtonWhat it exports
PDFThe charts of the dashboard you have open, as a PDF file.
ImageThe charts of the dashboard you have open, as PNG pictures.
CSVThe data in the grid, as a CSV file. The grid has its own CSV export icon above the grid as well.

6 Best practice

  • Select only the items you want to compare. The charts add up everything that is ticked, so a large selection mixes the results of unrelated items.
  • Use the search with Select all to tick a group quickly. Only the items that match the search are ticked.
  • Read the historical graph with the grid in mind. On Compliance Overview, the graph at the bottom shows the whole estate and does not change when you search.
  • Ask your administrator when a dashboard is missing. Each dashboard is shown only to the security roles that have the right for it, so a missing item means your role does not have that right.
  • Expect no changes in Intune. The dashboards show what Intune holds. To change a device, application, policy or script, use the Intune admin centre or the pages that are built for that purpose.
