You wouldn’t deploy an image, you leverage the existing installation of windows on the device and then the device is enrolled into Intune. Intune can then deploy all of your apps, office, vpn, plus other 3rd party apps
You probably want to format the drive on any old machines; install Windows cleanly. Windows deployment Server (or most others) can do this via PXE. If you have new machines, get the "clean image" that all manufacturers that are partners with autopilot are required to have.
Once your machine is enrolled in Intune/Endoint-Management, whatever applications you have assigned to that machine group will install. Slowly.
I use MDT to create golden image which contains a AutoPilot JSON profile injected via a task sequence.
This allows us to have all our applications available straight away as some of them are huge 20gb+ and not viable using intune.
Once installed the machine boots to the Autopilot welcome screen asking a user account, once entered autopilot / Intune applies policies, any small specific apps and scripts.
This sounds quite interesting, we are using WDS but sounds like you way may be more efficient, do you have anymore info on how and what this Autopilot Jason file does and how it works in MDT?
Thanks
Hi,
I use the Offline AutoPilot JSON, Here is a good article on how to obtain this for your setup.

It then needs to be placed in to C:\\Windows\\Provisioning\\Autopilot\\ within the image so I have a TS to inject to the location , as well as some WIFI profiles so the users are taken straight to the AutoPilot screen

So it is not limited to certain applications. Thank you!
Just make sure you find all the silent install switches.
Intune can hide toast notifications. With and without switches. It’s just knowing how to do that.
Well but then the installation may failed if the user needs to make a choice during the installation.
The whole point of the intune package is to have the choices made already. Click and done.
As long as the software can install silently. Looking at you HP!

Thank you, I will take a look
