Sometimes you need to lookup the ID of your Intune policies. Let’s say you have an issue with a specific policy and you have requested a service request to Microsoft for assistance. The Microsoft technician can ask you for the ID of the failing policy.

In this article I will describe how to get the ID’s of your Intune policies with Powershell and Graph API.

How to get the get-intunepolicy function.

Go to the Powershell Gallery (Thanks to Ondrej Sebela for creating this package)

Open Powershell as an admin and paste the code.

Install-Module -Name IntuneStuff
Import-Module IntuneStuff -Force
# connect to Graph API
Connect-MSGraph
# get all Intune policies
Get-IntunePolicy -verbose

This will show you all Intune Policies which are in place at the moment with all details of these policies. It will look something like this:

As you can see this result is a not clear and gives you a lot of info.

By default, this function returns a single object with property names representing “policy sections” (such as app, AppConfigurationPolicy, CompliancePolicy, etc.) and their corresponding individual policies as values. If you prefer a different format, you can use the ‘flatOutput’ parameter to receive an array containing all the policies instead.

To get a better result that is more clear use this command:

Get-IntunePolicy -policyType ALL -basicoverview -flatoutput

As you can see the ID is now much more easier to lookup.

You can always use the command with the Export-csv to get a csv file in order to ease the lookup.

Get-IntunePolicy -policyType ALL -basicoverview -flatoutput | Export-Csv -Path C:\Temp\IntunePolicies.csv

This will create a CSV file named IntunePolicies.csv into your C:\Temp directory which you can import into Excel. And it will look like this:
