iOS - Bulk Assign an ADE Enrollment Profile

We have a large order of iPads coming in and are planning a switch to Intune. in Airwatch there is a way to bulk assign devices from a CSV to a specific enrollment profile. Is that possible using Intune? I cannot find that in the admin console?

You can setup a "Default Profile" so that new devices coming in gets this default profile.

No I'm talking about assigning a non-default profile to a large group of devices. I understand about the default device profile, but we need an option to assign hundreds of devices to a different profile then the default.

Going through the list to check off one device at a time is insanity.

@Mike-4130, Maybe we can consider to create a Dynamic Group. set the dynamic membership rules like "(device.deviceOSType -contains “iPhone”)" or others to the group which will automatically add these devices into this group. After that, assign the ADE enrollment profile to the group to let them bulk apply the ADE Enrollment Profile。For the Dynamic membership rules, we can refer to the following article:

The problem is that I do not want to add ALL iPhones or iPads just a specific number or order we have containing hundreds of devices with random serial numbers. Like I said above in VMWare Airwatch this is easy, you can simply assign the serial numbers in an uploaded CSV to an enrollment profile.

As far as I can tell in Intune there is no way to accomplish this without manually searching for the serial numbers and assigning them. This is an extremely cumbersome task that shouldn't be.

@Mike-4130, Thanks for the reply. Based on my research, I didn't find this feature in Intune now. We can request this feature in the Intune uservoice. This is a place to collect the customer feedback for new feature request or known issue:

For our issue,, maybe we can consider to assign the ADE profile via PowerShell. Here is a link list some PowerShell script for the reference:

Hope it can help.

I had the same question, the linked AppleEnrollment powershell page you supplied was able to satisfy my request after some modifications to one of the provided scripts.
