Hi @mahipalmahi116 ,
To use a service account with Intune, especially for fetching data, it's essential to ensure that the account has the necessary permissions and is correctly authenticated to access the Intune data.
1.Ensure Proper Permissions: The service account needs to have the appropriate permissions assigned to access the Intune data. Typically, this would involve having either Global Administrator or Intune Administrator roles assigned within your Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
2.Authentication: For accessing Intune data programmatically, your service account must authenticate using OAuth 2.0 with Microsoft Entra ID. This involves registering an application in Azure AD, obtaining client credentials (client ID and secret), and using these credentials to request an access token from the Microsoft identity platform endpoint.
3.Use the Access Token: Once you have the access token, you can use it to authenticate requests to the Intune OData endpoint. Ensure that the HTTP request headers include the Authorization field with the bearer token.
4.Handling Password Rotation: Since your organization has a password change policy, consider using Azure AD's certificate-based authentication for your service account to avoid frequent password resets. This method involves using a certificate instead of a client secret, which can be more secure and less susceptible to password rotation policies.
