Intune - How to Capture the Hardware ID

 To capture the hardware ID using Intune, you can follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center (https://endpoint.microsoft.com) with your Intune administrator account.

  2. Navigate to "Devices" in the left-hand menu.

  3. Select "All devices" or choose a specific device group from the list.

  4. Locate the device for which you want to capture the hardware ID and click on its name to open the device details page.

  5. In the device details page, scroll down to the "Properties" section.

  6. Look for the "Hardware ID" field. The hardware ID is a unique identifier assigned to the device by the hardware manufacturer.

Note: The availability and location of the hardware ID field may vary depending on the device platform (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android) and the specific version of Intune you are using. Ensure you have the necessary permissions and access rights to view device details and capture hardware IDs in your Intune environment.

Capturing hardware IDs can be useful for various device management tasks, such as device enrollment, configuration, and policy enforcement in Intune.

an alternative method for capturing the hardware ID using Windows PowerShell. Please follow the steps below in a considerate manner:

  1. Open Windows PowerShell.

  2. Enter the following commands sequentially:

    • md c:\HWID

    • Set-Location c:\HWID

    • Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force

    • Install-Script -Name Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -Force

    • $env:Path += ";C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts"

    • Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo.ps1 -OutputFile AutopilotHWID.csv

By executing these commands, an AutopilotHWID.csv file will be generated in the c:\HWID folder.

Thanks
