Microsoft 365 Endpoint AdministratorManage devices and apps (55-60%)Hard
A Microsoft 365 Endpoint Administrator needs to configure a custom setting on Windows 11 devices that is not available in any of Intune's built-in configuration profiles or templates. The setting is documented as a Configuration Service Provider (CSP) URI. Which Intune profile type should be used for this purpose?
- AAdministrative Templates profile
- BEndpoint protection profile for Windows 10 and later
- CCustom profile for Windows 10 and later (OMA-URI)
- DDevice restrictions profile for Windows 10 and later
Show answer & explanationAnswer & explanation
Correct answer: C. Custom profile for Windows 10 and later (OMA-URI)
For custom settings not covered by built-in templates, and when the setting is defined by a Configuration Service Provider (CSP) URI, the 'Custom profile for Windows 10 and later' using OMA-URI (Open Mobile Alliance Uniform Resource Identifier) is the correct and most flexible option in Intune.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Administrative Templates profiles manage Group Policy settings and are different from direct CSP configuration via OMA-URI.
- B. Endpoint protection profiles focus on security features like antivirus and firewall, not arbitrary custom CSP settings.
- D. Device restrictions profiles offer a predefined set of restrictions, not custom CSP settings.
Intune Custom Profile (OMA-URI)
A Microsoft Intune configuration profile that allows administrators to deploy custom settings to devices using Open Mobile Alliance Uniform Resource Identifier (OMA-URI) paths, directly interfacing with Configuration Service Providers (CSPs).
- Used for settings not exposed in Intune's built-in templates.
- Requires knowledge of CSPs and their OMA-URI paths.
- Provides granular control over device configurations.
Memory trick: Custom Options Make Administration Unique.
