Natural Language Configuration
Natural Language Configuration is the biggest attraction of Infusing AI into Intune Settings. Instead of hunting through nested menus (e.g., Workspace > Permissions > Security > IP Whitelisting), you can simply describe the outcome you want.
| Features | Details |
|---|---|
| The Interface | A global search bar within Settings that acts as a command line. |
| The Action | AI identifies the required changes as per the prompt |
Proactive “Smart Defaults”
Proactive “Smart Defaults” helps you to analyze ow your team actually uses the product to suggest optimizations. AI can do usage analysis and give notifications according to that.
Contextual Documentation
AI-powered tooltips explain what a setting does specifically for your data. For example, Instead of “Enables API Rate Limiting,” it says, “Enabling this will prevent the 4 high-volume scripts your team currently runs from crashing the workspace during peak hours.”
Conflict Resolution & Impact Mapping
Conflict Resolution & Impact Mapping is easy with AI. Changing one setting can often break another. AI acts as a “pre-flight check.” For example If you change a privacy setting, the AI generates a brief impact summary: “Changing this will restrict access for 12 guest users and disable the Slack integration. Do you want to proceed?”
