Command context
Current device target
The command runs against the Windows endpoint already selected for the live support session.
Remote PowerShell for Intune
Run remote PowerShell on Intune-managed devices
Run remote PowerShell on Microsoft Intune-managed Windows devices with streamed output, role-based access, cancellation, and captured session evidence.
Streamed command output
Focused remote execution
Role-based access
Captured session history
Run PowerShell where the device evidence is.
When a built-in diagnostic view cannot answer the next question, use PowerShell from the same connected device and support-session context.
Command context
Command context
Streamed output
Follow command progress and output while the task is running instead of waiting for a later deployment report.
Command context
Command cancellation
Stop a running command when the evidence is sufficient or the task should not continue.
Command context
Shared investigation context
Keep the command alongside the processes, services, files, events, and other checks that led to it.
Use a custom check without building a new deployment.
Remote PowerShell supports the one-off diagnostic and remediation work that appears during an active endpoint incident.
Practical use
Validate a configuration
Read the specific Windows, application, network, or management state required to confirm a suspected cause.
Practical use
Collect focused evidence
Return only the command output needed for the investigation or service-desk ticket.
Practical use
Apply an approved remediation
Run a targeted change when the administrator role and support process authorize it.
Practical use
Confirm the result
Use the command output or another live tool to verify the endpoint state after the action.
Keep powerful endpoint access controlled.
PowerShell access should be deliberate. IntuneRT aligns execution with tenant identity, tool permissions, and reviewable session evidence.
Guardrails
Permissioned tool access
Limit PowerShell availability to the administrator roles that require command execution.
Guardrails
Visible commands and output
Keep the submitted command and returned output in the support-session record.
Guardrails
Accountable actions
Associate command activity with the authenticated administrator and selected endpoint.
Guardrails
Clear handoff
Summarize the diagnostic intent, action, and outcome for the ticket or next support tier.
From live evidence to a documented outcome.
Keep the investigation, controlled action, and support record in one operational flow.
Live support
Confirm the target and intent
Open the connected Intune-managed endpoint and establish the diagnostic question the command needs to answer.
Live support
Run and review the command
Execute the focused PowerShell command, follow streamed output, and cancel if the task should stop.
Live support
Verify and document
Confirm the resulting device state and retain the command, output, and outcome with the support session.
Questions from Intune administrators.
Practical answers about where IntuneRT fits, how it connects, and how actions stay controlled.
FAQ
Can Intune run PowerShell scripts without IntuneRT?
Yes. Microsoft Intune can assign PowerShell scripts and remediations to managed devices. IntuneRT is intended for interactive, device-specific work during a live support session with immediate output and supporting endpoint context.
FAQ
Is remote PowerShell available to every administrator?
It does not need to be. IntuneRT tool permissions can restrict PowerShell access to the roles that require command execution.
FAQ
Can a running command be stopped?
Yes. The PowerShell tool supports cancelling a running command when the task should not continue.
FAQ
Is command activity retained?
PowerShell activity can remain with the support-session history so the investigation and outcome are reviewable.
