Custom ADMX/ADML Templates in Intune

Overview

Custom ADMX/ADML templates allow administrators to configure additional settings in Intune that are not available in the default built-in templates. They are commonly used for managing browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge) and advanced Windows system policies.

Prerequisites

  • Intune Administrator or Global Administrator role.
  • Devices must be Intune-enrolled.
  • Valid ADMX and ADML files from the vendor (e.g., Google Chrome templates).

Steps

1. Sign in

2. Navigate to Configuration Profiles

  • Go to: Devices > Configuration profiles > Create profile.

3. Select Platform and Profile Type

  • Platform: Windows 10 and later
  • Profile type: Templates > Imported Administrative Templates (ADMX)

4. Import ADMX/ADML Files

  • Upload vendor-provided templates.
  • Example: Chrome.admx and Chrome.adml.
  • Ensure ADML language files match the ADMX.

5. Configure Settings

  • After import, policies become available.
  • Examples:
    • Set Chrome homepage.
    • Block or allow extensions.
    • Configure advanced Windows security settings.

6. Assign the Profile

  • Add Azure AD groups:
    • All Devices
    • Browsers group
    • Department-specific groups

7. Review and Create

  • Review summary.
  • Click Create.

8. Monitor Deployment
