Hi, today we are discussing a new topic: Network Requirements for PowerShell Scripts and Win32 Apps Coming to the Microsoft Intune. As you all know, Microsoft Intune is a cloud service that is the best for deploying applications. The latest update for Microsoft Intune is ongoing this year.

With the retirement of Edgeio, updated CDN endpoints are required for deploying Win32 apps and PowerShell scripts. According to sources from Microsoft Intune, a significant update is the retirement of Edgeio on December 27, 2024.

The Content Delivery Network (CDN) provider will no longer be available for delivering content after that date. With this new update CDN endpoints are essential for delivering apps and scripts to devices. They serve as access points for data distribution, ensuring smooth and secure communication.

The retirement of Edgeio and the update to CDN endpoints for Win32 apps and PowerShell scripts are significant changes, and quick action is needed. In this post, we can look at a quick overview of this update and how it affects the organization.

How the Change Will Affect Your Organization

When using Intune to deploy PowerShell scripts or Win32 applications, it is essential to grant access to the updated endpoints specific to your location. If access to these endpoints is not provided, users will be unable to install Win32 applications, and PowerShell scripts will fail to execute.

What you need to do to prepare
Update your firewall rules to include the new CDN endpoints for Win32 apps and
PowerShell scripts.
