All Assignments

What Is This Page?

The All Assignments page gives you a complete, real-time snapshot of every assignment that exists in your Intune tenant — across every resource type, every platform, and every target group. Think of it as the "mission control" for your Intune assignment landscape.

Whether you are a helpdesk administrator trying to understand why a policy applies to a device, an architect reviewing the overall assignment structure, or a CISO wanting an audit trail, this page is your starting point.


Why Would You Use This?

  • You want to know what is assigned, to whom, and how — all in a single view

  • You are conducting a compliance or security audit and need evidence of policy coverage

  • You suspect conflicting or missing assignments and need to see the full picture

  • You want to export a report of all assignments for documentation or review purposes

  • You need to quickly check if a specific resource has an assignment filter applied


How to Load the Data

  1. Navigate to Assistant → Assignments → All Assignments

  2. Click the Load Data button (top right area)

  3. Intune Assistant fetches all assignments from your tenant via Microsoft Graph

  4. The table populates with results — this may take a few seconds depending on tenant size

Large tenants: Fetching can take longer if you have thousands of policies and apps. A loading indicator shows progress.

Understanding the Table

Once loaded, the data is displayed in a table with the following columns:

Column
What It Means

Resource

The name of the Intune object (policy, configuration profile, app, script, etc.)

Type

The resource category (e.g., Compliance Policy, Configuration Profile, Win32 App)

Sub Type

A more specific classification within the resource type

Assignment

How the resource is targeted — e.g., Entra ID Group, All Users, All Devices

Target

The name of the group, user, or built-in target the assignment points to

Platform

The device platform this resource applies to (Windows, iOS, Android, macOS, or All)

Status

Whether the resource is currently Assigned or Not Assigned

Filter

The name of an assignment filter applied (if any) — click to see filter details

Filter Type

Whether the filter is Include or Exclude

Role Scope Tags

Any RBAC scope tags associated with the resource

⚠️ Warning Indicators

If a row shows a small amber triangle icon next to the resource name, it means Intune Assistant detected a potential issue with that assignment — for example, a group that no longer exists or an inconsistency in assignment data. Hover over the icon to read the warning message.


Filtering the Data

The filter bar (click Filters to expand it) lets you narrow down results without losing the full dataset. All filters work together — each one you add further reduces the results shown.

Filter
What It Does

Assignment Type

Show only specific targeting methods (e.g., only group assignments, only All Users)

Status

Show only Assigned, only Not Assigned, or both

Platform

Limit to a specific device platform

Resource Type

Focus on a specific type of Intune resource

Filter Type

Show only assignments using Include filters, Exclude filters, or no filter at all

Role Scope Tags

Narrow by RBAC scope tags assigned to resources

To remove all active filters at once, click Clear Filters.


Use the Search box at the top of the table to do a free-text search across:

  • Resource name

  • Target name

  • Assignment type

  • Resource type

  • Platform

  • Filter name

This is useful when you know part of a name and want to find it quickly without setting up formal filters.


Clicking on Groups

In the Target column, group names are clickable. Clicking a group name opens a Group Details dialog that shows:

  • Group display name and description

  • Membership type (assigned or dynamic)

  • Number of users, devices, and nested groups

  • Member list (if available)

This allows you to quickly understand who is affected by an assignment without leaving the page.


Clicking on Filters

In the Filter column, any filter name that is linked can be clicked to open a Filter Details dialog showing:

  • Filter display name and description

  • Platform the filter targets

  • The filter rule expression


Exporting the Data

Click the Export button to download the current view (including any active filters and search) as a CSV file. The export includes all visible columns plus Role Scope Tags.

Filename: assignments-overview.csv

💡 Use the export for audit reports, change management documentation, or sharing with stakeholders who do not have access to the portal.


Summary Stats

Above the table, a small stats bar shows key numbers at a glance:

  • Total Assignments — count of rows in the current filtered view

  • Assigned — how many are actively assigned

  • Not Assigned — resources that exist but have no assignment

  • Resource Types — how many distinct resource categories are present

  • Platforms — how many platforms are represented


Common Use Cases

Audit: What policies are assigned to All Devices?

→ Set Assignment Type filter to All Devices

Audit: Which resources have no assignment at all?

→ Set Status filter to Not Assigned

Security review: Are there assignments without any scope tag?

→ Set Role Scope Tags filter — rows without tags will be visible when no tag filter is selected

Troubleshooting: Find a specific policy quickly

→ Type the policy name in the Search box
