App Assignments

What Is This Page?

The App Assignments page focuses exclusively on application deployments in your Intune tenant. It shows every app that Intune knows about, who it is assigned to, how it is installed, and on which platform.

Why Would You Use This?

  • Verify which apps are deployed to which groups

  • Check the install type (Required, Available, Uninstall) for a specific app

  • Investigate why a user does or does not have an app on their device

  • Audit app assignments across platforms (Windows, iOS, Android, macOS)

  • Produce a report of all deployed applications for a compliance review

How to Load the Data

  1. Navigate to Assistant > Assignments > App Assignments

  2. Click Load Data

  3. Data is fetched from Microsoft Graph in pages

  4. A progress counter shows how many pages have been loaded

Paged loading: Data loads in batches. You will see a counter like Fetched 3 pages (300 records) while loading is in progress.

Cancel: You can stop loading at any point. Records already fetched remain visible.
