Enable Radar Tracking

Radar Tracking scans your Intune-managed devices to discover software that was installed manually (outside of Intune management) and brings it under automated patching.

What you'll need

  • A connected Intune tenant with Admin Consent authorization
  • The optional Device.Read.All and DeviceManagementManagedDevices.Read.All permissions granted
  • Robopatch Writer or Organisation Administrator role

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Run an initial scan

Go to Radar in the left menu and run a scan of your tenant. Robopack will inventory the software installed across your Intune-managed devices.

2. Select an app to manage

From the scan results, find an application you want to bring under management and click Add Patch Flow.

3. Create a Robopatch Flow

Set up your Deployment Waves as you would for any Robopatch Flow (see Automating App Updates for details on waves).

4. Enable Radar Tracking

Once you've added at least one Deployment Wave, the Radar Tracking toggle becomes available. Enable it.

5. Choose a tracking mode

6. Save and start

Click Save and Start Deployment. Radar will scan your tenant periodically (every 24 hours) and automatically update devices that have older versions of the tracked application.
