Detect Applications from Intune with Pckgr

Use Intune's Discovered Applications feature to filter Pckgr's applications.

Pckgr has introduced a feature designed to help customers streamline their application management by detecting applications in Microsoft Intune and matching them with the Pckgr Application Library. This feature enables users to identify which applications are already in Intune and assess what Pckgr can manage for them.

How It Works

1. Pre-requisite Plan Requirements:

   • This feature is available on the Professional or Business plans.

   • Business plan users can additionally leverage the Private Repository for this functionality.

2. Accessing the Feature:

   • Navigate to the Application Library from the Pckgr Dashboard.

   • Select Add an App.

   • Click on the Check button to initiate the detection process.

3. Detection Process:

   • A loading popup will display as Pckgr connects with Intune and retrieves the list of discovered applications.

   • The feature compares the discovered Intune applications against Pckgr’s Application Library.

   • Once the check is complete, the Application Library is filtered to display only the applications that Pckgr can manage for the user.

4. Private Repository Support:

   • For Business plan users, this functionality extends to include applications hosted in the Private Repository. This ensures that even niche or specialized applications can be detected and managed efficiently.
