Monitor Overview
What Is This Page?
Monitor Overview is the landing page of the Drift Monitor section, reached via Drift Monitor > Monitor Overview in the sidebar. It checks that the permissions Drift Monitor needs are in place, and then gives you three cards to jump into the rest of the feature.
Permission Check
Drift Monitor relies on a Microsoft-managed application called Unified Tenant Configuration Management (UTCM). When the page loads, it automatically checks whether this application has been granted all the Microsoft Graph permissions it needs.
Green card — all required permissions are present. You are ready to create monitors.
Red card — one or more permissions are missing. The card lists which ones, and links to an external setup guide that walks through granting them.
Click Recheck at any time to re-run the check, for example right after an admin has granted the missing consent.
If UTCM is not fully configured, Drift Monitor will not be able to detect any configuration changes. Fix any missing permissions here before creating monitors.
Where To Go From Here
Three navigation cards take you deeper into the feature:
Global Overview
Global Overview — a dashboard summarising every monitor, its drifts, and recent run history
All Monitors
All Monitors — the full list of configured monitors, with the option to add a new one
Drift Alerts
Drifts — every configuration drift detected across all monitors
A closing section links out to the public documentation and the IntuneAssistant GitHub repository if you want to learn more or report an issue.
Common Questions
Do I need to do anything on this page every time? No. Once the UTCM permission check shows green, you can go straight to Global Overview, All Monitors, or Add Monitor from the sidebar without revisiting this page.
What if the permission check stays red after I've granted consent? Click Recheck. Microsoft Graph permission changes can take a minute to propagate.
