[BUG] Get-Application is not signalling exit 1 when app to be removed is identified

[samim209]

Get-Application and Remove-Application are deployed in Microsoft Intune as a Remediation script module. Get-Application is deployed as a Detection script and Remove-Application as a Remediation script.

In order for Remediation script to be executed Detection script should signal exit 1 as in the Intune documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/intune/intune-service/fundamentals/remediations#script-requirements

Now, when Detection script correctly identifies application to be removed, it outputs NonCompliant and apparently just exits (perhaps exit 0?). This will result that Intune Remediation script is not run and application remains installed.

Correct functionality, when deployed in Intune, would be to output NonCompliant and signal exit 1 to initiate Remediation script to be started.

Hi,

Thanks, for reporting this you can just add this at the end of the script.

  ## Output the result
    Write-Output -InputObject $ComplianceState

    $ExitCode = if ($MatchCount -eq 0) { 0 } else { 1 }
    exit $ExitCode
}

I'm working on a new version that fixes this and adds some more functionality.
I'll leave this open and close it when the new verion comes out.

Thanks,
Ioan

Thank you. This fixed the issue. Remediation script is now being run if there are apps to be removed.
