Is there any way to do immediate reboot?
With graph api time delay stretchers further for 10-30 min.

@Bhujbal, Shreyas , Thanks for the reply. After doing research, I didn't find the option to immediately reboot in Intune side. Here, we suggest to feedback in the uservoice to see if the feature can be added in the future:

Meanwhile, I notice the delay can be 10-30 minutes. After researching, I find, the execute action will do at the end of the sync session.

Please go to the device side,Settings->Accounts->Access work or school, find the user and click sync to see if the time period will reduce?

Hope it can help. If there's any update, feel free to let us know.

I tried sync device action : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/intune-devices-manageddevice-syncdevice?view=graph-rest-1.0
but syncing itself not working.
Device reboots when server complete its sync cycle(which is not I required)
Still searching for immediate reboot

@Bhujbal, Shreyas , Thanks for the reply. I fully understand you feeling. But from Windows CSP, the delay is by default. Maybe we can deploy a Powershell script with the commands like the following to restart the device immediately:
shutdown /r -t 1

Hope it can help.

@Bhujbal, Shreyas , For the rebootNow action, it actually perform a reboot on the device. When the user is loggin, the device receive the action and will be restarted within 5 minutes. Here is a link with more details for the reference:
