VMware Workspace ONE® powered by AirWatch integration with Microsoft Intune® App Protection Policies removes the management of DLP policies for your Microsoft Intune App Protection policies in two consoles.
You can configure the data loss prevention (DLP) application policies for your Microsoft Intune App Protection in Workspace ONE UEM. After you integrate the two systems, manage the DLP application policies in the Workspace ONE UEM console so that the integration stays current.
Most Microsoft Intune App Protection Policies are available for the Android platform and the iOS platform.
Manage in the Workspace ONE UEM Console to Stay Synced
After you integrate the two systems, manage the DLP application policies in the Workspace ONE UEM console so that the integration stays current. Workspace ONE UEM does not receive changes that are made in other parts of the integration. The DLP application policies or security group assignments can get out of sync.
User Experiences on Android and iOS
The iOS and Android platforms have different and similar user experiences when users first access apps after a successful integration with Intune.
Experience on iOS
When the device user authenticates to Microsoft Office 365 applications on iOS devices, and the profile pushed successfully, the system displays a pop-up stating that your organization manages the application. There are no additional steps in the configuration.
Experience on Android
To manage Android and Android Enterprise devices, users must install the Intune Company Portal application. This application acts as a broker for the Intune App SDK the same way the Workspace ONE Intelligent Hub acts as a broker for Workspace ONE UEM applications.
Common Experience on iOS and Android
Both platforms must set Intune as the MDM Authority on the device. You can configure this setting on the device in Intune MDM Authority from the Getting Started notification.
. EnableDo These Actions in Azure to Integrate Microsoft Intune
For integration, create a user account and assign the user the listed Microsoft licenses.
Those environments that do not have the Azure AD integration in Directory Services in the Workspace ONE UEM console, you must add the AirWatch by VMware app in Azure. Access Configure Workspace ONE UEM to Use Azure AD as an Identity Service for details.
If you already have Out of the Box Enrollment (OOBE) set up with any other MDM provider other than Workspace ONE UEM, add AirWatch by VMware and do not enter or edit any other settings in Azure. If you do enter or edit configurations, you might break the existing enrollment process.
- Create a service account (a user) in Azure, and assign the user the proper roles.
Note:
These steps are general. For current details about configuring Azure, see Microsoft documentation.
- Go to your Azure portal by entering portal.azure.com in your browser.

Disable MFA (multi-factor authentication) for this user's domain.
- Assign this user the listed roles.
- Intune Administrator
- Application Administrator
- Directory Reader
- Directory Writer
- If you created a user in Azure AD, use this account to log in to Azure at portal.azure.com. Ensure that the password is valid and does not need updating.

Configure Intune Settings
In the Workspace ONE UEM console, configure and apply data loss prevention (DLP) application policies to Microsoft Intune® App Protection applications and data. Configure the Authentication tab first so the systems can communicate. Then configure your DLP settings and assign them to groups.
The warning alters for the Operating System version and the App version. The Android Patch version only notifies the user with a warning message. However, the warning alerts do not stop the end users from using the app.
Prerequisites
To configure and apply DLP application policies to Intune applications, you must have the privileges to configure app policies in Intune.
Procedure
- Navigate to .
- Select the Authentication tab and enter the user name and password for the Azure admin.
Administrators can use Office 365 DLP application policies to protect Office 365 apps and data with Microsoft Graph APIs. To configure Office 365 DLP policies, you need admin credentials to connect your tenant to Workspace ONE UEM.
Setting Description User Name Enter the user name that is used to configure your tenant to Workspace ONE UEM. Password Enter the password that is used to configure your tenant to Workspace ONE UEM.

Warning Messages for Deleted and Modified Policies
After the Microsoft Intune App Protection Policies load, Workspace ONE UEM console checks for deletions and modifications in Intune in the Azure portal. It is possible for managed policies to get out of sync with the deployed policies. To warn admins about possible deletions and modifications, the Workspace ONE UEM console displays warning messages based on the scenario.
-
Policy was deleted on the Microsoft Intune Portal. Click Delete Settings to delete the policy settings from UEM.
The Workspace ONE UEM console displays this message after someone deletes one or both iOS and Android policies deployed in Intune. Selecting Delete Settings removes the settings of both policies from the Workspace ONE UEM console without modifying anything on the Azure side. The console page does not refresh automatically.
Users can deploy new iOS and Android policies to Azure without error.
Note: If only one of the policies, iOS or Android, is deleted in Azure, the other policy still remains in Azure. Users must manually delete the other policy if they choose not to keep the past settings. -
Policy settings were updated on the Microsoft Intune portal and are out of sync with Workspace ONE UEM. Click Sync Settings to update this policy in UEM.
The Workspace ONE UEM console displays this message after someone modifies both iOS and Android policies in Intune in the Azure portal and the policy settings still match between the two policies. Selecting Sync Settings updates the settings of both policies in Workspace ONE UEM to match those pulled from the policies in Azure. The console page does not refresh automatically.Note: This senario excludes settings that are specific to iOS or Android such as iOS SDK settings and Android Assistant settings. -
"Receive data between other apps" policy is different for Android policy and iOS policy in Azure Portal. This setting needs to be the same for Workspace ONE UEM to sync the Android and iOS policy. Contact IT administrator to resolve the issue.
"Receive data between other apps" and "Send org data to other apps" policies are differet for Android policy and iOS policy in Azure portal. These settings need to be the same for Workspace ONE UEM to sync the Android and iOS policy. Contact IT administrator to resolve the issue.
"Prevent Backups", "Receive data between other apps", and "Send org data to other apps" policies are different for Android policy and iOS policy in Azure portal. These settings need to be the same for Workspace ONE UEM to sync the Android and iOS policy. Contact IT administrator to resolve the issue.
The Workspace ONE UEM console displays these messages after someone modifies both policies in Intune in the Azure portal but the policy settings do not match between the two policies. The messages list the setting discrepancies between the two policies in Azure. They also list the policy names listed in Azure and not the ones used by the Workspace ONE UEM console.
Resolve the conflicts listed in the messages before using the Sync Settings menu item in the Workspace ONE UEM console.
Note: This senario excludes settings that are specific to iOS or Android such as iOS SDK settings and Android Assistant settings.
The Delete Settings menu item and the Sync Settings menu item do not modify any settings in Intune in the Azure portal.
