This guide walks you through creating an Azure AD application with Intune permissions, then configuring a Microsoft Intune Endpoint Management integration in Synqly.

  • An Azure AD tenant with Microsoft Intune licenses.
  • Administrator access to register applications in Azure AD.

Step 1: Create an Azure AD Application

  1. Log in to the Azure portal.
  2. Navigate to Azure Active Directory > App registrations > New registration.
  3. Enter an application name (e.g., "Synqly Intune Integration").
  4. Under Supported account types, select Accounts in this organizational directory only.
  5. Click Register.
  6. On the application overview page, note the Application (client) ID and the Directory (tenant) ID. You will need both values when configuring the integration.

Step 2: Create a Client Secret

  1. In the application you just registered, navigate to Certificates & secrets.
  2. Click New client secret.
  3. Enter a description and select an expiration period.
  4. Click Add.
  5. Copy the Value of the new secret immediately — it is shown only once. Store it securely.

Step 3: Grant API Permissions

  1. Navigate to API permissions > Add a permission.
  2. Select Microsoft Graph > Application permissions.
  3. Add the following permissions:
    • DeviceManagementManagedDevices.Read.All — required for querying devices.
    • DeviceManagementConfiguration.Read.All — required for querying compliance policies.
    • DeviceManagementManagedDevices.PrivilegedOperations.All — required only if you need remediation actions (wipe, retire, remote lock, etc.).
  4. Click Grant admin consent for [your tenant] and confirm.

For more details, see the Microsoft Graph permissions reference.

Step 4: Configure the Integration in Synqly

  • Credential — Select OAuth Client and enter:
    • Client ID: The Application (client) ID from Step 1.
    • Client Secret: The secret value from Step 2.
  • Tenant ID — The Directory (tenant) ID from Step 1.
  • Base URL — Leave blank for global commercial tenants. For national cloud deployments, enter the Microsoft Graph API URL for your environment (e.g., https://graph.microsoft.us for US Government GCC High, or https://microsoftgraph.chinacloudapi.cn for China).
