You can give administrators access to Microsoft Intune without them requiring an Intune license. This feature applies to any administrator, including Intune administrators, global administrators, Microsoft Entra administrators, and so on. Other features or services, such as those in Microsoft Entra ID P1 or P2, might require a license for the administrator.
The Unlicensed admins option is enabled by default on all accounts created after the 2006 release.
Allow access
Sign in to Microsoft Intune admin center > Tenant administration > Roles > Administrator Licensing.
Select Allow access to unlicensed admins > Yes.
Warning
You can't undo this setting after clicking Yes.
From now on, users who sign in to the Microsoft Intune admin center don't require an Intune license. Roles assigned to users define their scope of access.
Intune supports up to 350 unlicensed admins per security group, and only applies to direct members. Admins above this limit experience unpredictable behavior.
It can take up to 48 hours for access changes to take effect.
