Hi All,
For our infrastructure, we've implemented Intune endpoint. I am aware that the Intune portal can give us information about software that has been discovered in our environment. For every application, we also require metering data, . How can you go about doing that? Is it possible using the Graph connector or PowerBi? Any advice, please
There is nothing in Intune that be used for capturing metering data. I am afraid you are looking at a custom solution altogether.
So the custom solution you mean, I have seen this data available in Security Portal ( Defender). So, is it possible to get that information through KQL queries and integrate it to ITSM tool? does it work? do you have experience on that? any insights on the custom solution?
Hi,
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
Per my experience, Intune does not provide software metering. Instead, we can configure software metering in Configuration Manager (current branch). For more information, please refer to:
Software metering in Configuration Manager
Software metering reports in Configuration Manager
Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!
Best regards,
Simon

Thank you for response. We are currently using Intune in our environment. As per my understanding, In order to include configuration manager capability, we need to do Co-management through Intune & config Manager Both?
Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Per my experience, Intune does not provide software metering. So it's hard to achieve the goal by Intune itself.
Best regards,
Simon

This could also be done via Applocker Reporting and LogAnalytics-Query... so this might help you => https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/reduce-license-costs-application-inventory-usage-report-becker/

Software Metering in SCCM won't fit if you need to capture utilization for modern apps like Outlook New as executable file is changing in each version.
As per the documentation wildcards are not supported for the File Name in Metering rules - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/configmgr/apps/deploy-use/monitor-app-usage-with-software-metering#:~:text=Wildcard%20characters%20are%20not%20permitted%20in%20the%20file%20name
