What Is This Page?

The Customer Information page is the central hub for managing your organization's relationship with Intune Assistant β€” who you are, which tenants you manage, what licenses are active, and which tenant context is currently selected for all other pages in the application.

For MSP (Managed Service Provider) accounts, this page is especially important. It allows you to register and manage multiple customer tenants, grant the required admin consent for each, assign licenses, and switch the active tenant context so that every other page in Intune Assistant operates against the correct customer environment. This is how an MSP engineer can move between managing one customer's Intune environment and another's without ever logging out.

circle-info

MSP + GDAP is the combination that enables full multi-tenant management. An MSP account with a GDAP relationship means you can add customer tenants, consent on their behalf, and manage their Intune environment through the delegated permissions Microsoft has granted you.


Account Types β€” What Is Yours?

When you first open this page, look at the Account Type badges in the Customer Details card. There are three independent flags:

Badge

The Page Layout

The page is divided into three main areas:

  1. Customer Details β€” your organization's profile information

  2. License Information + Summary β€” your active licenses and tenant counts

  3. Tenant Management table β€” all registered tenants with their status and actions

πŸ“Έ [Screenshot placeholder: Tenant Management table showing three tenants β€” one with a red "Consent Required" badge and inline Grant Consent button, one with a grey "Onboarding Required" badge, and one with a green "Ready" badge]

Clicking a Tenant Row

Clicking anywhere on a tenant row sets that tenant as the active context for the entire application. A brief blue shimmer animation confirms the selection. After clicking, all other pages (Assignments, Configuration, Audit Events, etc.) operate against that tenant's data.

The currently selected tenant is remembered in the application context and displayed in the tenant selector in the sidebar.


Adding a Tenant (MSP Accounts Only)

The Add Tenant button is visible in the Tenant Management card header only when:

  • Your account is an MSP (isMsp = true)

  • Your account is Active (isActive = true)

  • You have not reached your tenant limit

Clicking it opens the Tenant Onboarding Modal β€” a guided flow for registering a new customer tenant. See Tenant Onboarding for the full walkthrough.

After successful onboarding, the page automatically refreshes and the new tenant appears in the table.


Editing a Tenant

For paid accounts, clicking the pencil icon in the Actions column opens the Tenant Management dialog β€” a full-screen modal with a two-column layout covering all settings and licenses for that tenant in one place.

Left Column β€” Tenant Settings

Display Name β€” an editable text field for the tenant's friendly name in Intune Assistant.

Tenant Information (read-only summary):

  • Tenant ID (GUID)

  • Domain name

  • Status badge (Active / Inactive)

  • GDAP badge (Enabled / Disabled)

Click Save Settings to apply the display name change.

Left Column β€” Quick Actions

Three action buttons below the settings form:

Set as Context / Active Context

Sets this tenant as the active context for the entire application. When already selected, the button shows a green Active Context label with a checkmark. Clicking it again when already active has no effect.

circle-info

This is the primary way to switch between customer environments in MSP workflows. Set the context here, then navigate to any other section β€” all data will be scoped to that tenant.

Add New License

Opens the License Onboarding Wizard for this tenant. See the License Onboarding Wizard section below.

Delete Tenant

Opens a confirmation dialog before permanently removing the tenant from the system. See Deleting a Tenant below.

Right Column β€” License Management

Lists every license currently assigned to this tenant. Each license card shows:

Element
What It Shows

License type badge

Assistant (type 0) or Assignments Manager (type 1)

Consent status

Green checkmark (Consented & Onboarded / Consented & Pending) or orange warning (Consent Required)

Grant Consent button

Appears only when consent has not been granted β€” opens the consent URL in a new tab

Active toggle

Enable or disable this specific license. Changes are saved immediately via PATCH API

Trial toggle

Mark or unmark this license as a trial. Changes are saved immediately

Created date

When the license was created

Expires date

When the license expires, or Never

Delete (trash icon)

Opens a confirmation dialog to permanently delete the license

πŸ“Έ [Screenshot placeholder: Tenant Management dialog open, showing the two-column layout. Left column has Display Name field, Tenant Information summary, and three Quick Action buttons. Right column shows two license cards β€” one with a green checkmark and Active/Trial toggles, one with an orange Consent Required warning and a Grant Consent button]


License Onboarding Wizard

1

Select License Type

Choose the license type to add to this tenant:

Option
License Type
Notes

Assistant

Type 0

Grants access to core Intune Assistant features for this tenant

Assignments Manager

Type 1

Grants access to the licensed Assignments Manager extension

License types already assigned to the tenant are shown as disabled in the dropdown with (Already assigned) to prevent duplicates.

Click Start Consent Process to proceed.

2

A consent popup window opens automatically (600Γ—700 px). The popup is opened synchronously before any network calls to ensure the browser does not block it as a script-initiated popup.

Behind the scenes:

  1. The license is created in the backend via a POST request

  2. The consent URL is extracted from the response

  3. The popup is navigated to the Microsoft admin consent URL

While the popup is open, the wizard shows:

πŸ”— Consent window is open β€” Please complete the consent process in the popup window

What happens after consent:

  • If you complete consent in the popup, the browser sends a postMessage back to the wizard confirming success

  • If the popup closes without a postMessage (e.g., you close the window after completing consent on Microsoft's side), the wizard detects the popup closure via a polling interval and automatically calls the consent callback to verify with the backend

  • Either path leads to Step 3

If the popup is blocked by the browser:

❌ Failed to open consent window. Please allow popups for this site and try again.

πŸ“Έ [Screenshot placeholder: License Onboarding Wizard at Step 2 showing the three-step progress bar with Step 1 (Select License) and Step 2 (Grant Consent) highlighted, and a central area showing the ExternalLink icon with "Consent window is open" message]

3

Complete

A green checkmark confirms the license was successfully added.

βœ… Assistant license has been successfully added to Contoso Ltd.

Click Complete or Close to dismiss the wizard. The tenant management dialog and tenant list refresh automatically.


For community-only accounts, consent is managed directly from the Consent Status column in the main tenant table rather than through the License Onboarding Wizard.

When a tenant shows a red Consent Required badge:

  1. Click the Grant Consent button that appears next to the badge

  2. A consent popup opens (600Γ—700 px)

  3. Complete the Microsoft admin consent flow in the popup

  4. The popup closes and the consent callback is processed automatically

  5. The tenant's status updates to Ready (green) after a successful refresh

circle-exclamation

Deleting a Tenant

Clicking Delete Tenant in the Quick Actions section opens a confirmation dialog:

⚠️ Are you sure you want to delete "Tenant Name"? This action cannot be undone and will permanently remove the tenant from the system.

Two buttons: Cancel (safe) and Delete Tenant (red, destructive).

After deletion:

  • The tenant is removed from the backend

  • The tenant table refreshes automatically

  • The scroll position is preserved so you return to the same place in the list

circle-exclamation

Deleting a License

Inside the License Management section of the Tenant Management dialog, clicking the trash icon on a license opens a confirmation dialog:

⚠️ Are you sure you want to delete the "Assistant" license? This action cannot be undone and will remove access to features provided by this license.

After confirming, the license is deleted and the dialog refreshes with the updated license list.


The Tenant Context β€” Why It Matters

Setting tenant context is the most important action on this page for MSP users.

Every other section of Intune Assistant β€” Assignments, Configuration, Audit Events, Compare, Devices, Conditional Access β€” scopes all its data to the currently selected tenant context. When you change context here, you are effectively switching which customer's Intune environment you are working in.

The flow for an MSP engineer managing multiple customers is:

  1. Come to the Customer page

  2. Find the customer you need to work on

  3. Click the tenant row (or use Set as Context in the edit dialog)

  4. Navigate to whichever section you need (Assignments, Configuration, etc.)

  5. All data on those pages now comes from that customer's tenant via the GDAP permissions you hold

  6. Return to the Customer page to switch to a different customer

πŸ“Έ [Screenshot placeholder: Tenant Management table with one row highlighted in blue showing the currently selected tenant, and the sidebar tenant selector showing the same tenant name]


GDAP β€” How It Enables MSP Management

GDAP (Granular Delegated Admin Privileges) is the Microsoft framework that allows an MSP to manage a customer's Microsoft 365 and Intune environment without needing a user account in that tenant.

When GDAP is configured between your MSP tenant and a customer tenant:

  • Your admin credentials in your own tenant gain delegated permissions in the customer's tenant

  • The specific permissions available depend on the GDAP roles your customer has granted you

  • Intune Assistant uses these delegated permissions to call Microsoft Graph on behalf of the customer tenant when that tenant is set as the active context

In the tenant table, the GDAP column shows Enabled (filled badge) or Disabled (outlined badge) for each registered tenant.

For GDAP to work correctly in Intune Assistant, admin consent must also be granted for the application in the customer tenant β€” which is what the consent flow in this page handles.
