Before you can assign, monitor, configure, or protect apps, you must add them to Intune. One of the available app types is Microsoft 365 apps for Windows 10 devices. By selecting this app type in Intune, you can assign and install Microsoft 365 apps to devices you manage that run Windows 10. You can also assign and install apps for the Microsoft Project Online desktop client and Microsoft Visio Online Plan 2, if you own licenses for them. The available Microsoft 365 apps are displayed as a single entry in the list of apps in the Intune console within Azure.
Note
Microsoft Office 365 ProPlus has been renamed to Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise. In our documentation, we'll commonly refer to it as Microsoft 365 Apps.
You must use Microsoft 365 Apps licenses to activate Microsoft 365 Apps apps deployed through Microsoft Intune. Microsoft 365 Apps for business edition is supported by Intune, however you must configure the app suite of the Microsoft 365 Apps for business edition using XML data. For more information, see Configure app suite using XML data.
Deploying OneDrive through Intune after removal of the native OneDrive client is not supported. If the native OneDrive client is removed, Intune is not able to redeploy OneDrive. Deployment of OneDrive through Intune is not supported.
Before you start
Important
If there are .msi Office apps on the end-user device, you must use the Remove MSI feature to safely uninstall these apps. Otherwise, the Intune delivered Microsoft 365 apps will fail to install.
- Devices to which you deploy these apps must be running the Windows 10 Creators Update or later.
- Intune supports adding Office apps from the Microsoft 365 Apps suite only.
- If any Office apps are open when Intune installs the app suite, the installation might fail, and users might lose data from unsaved files.
- This installation method is not supported on Windows Home, Windows Team, Windows Holographic, or Windows Holographic for Business devices.
- Intune does not support installing Microsoft 365 desktop apps from the Microsoft Store (known as Office Centennial apps) on a device to which you have already deployed Microsoft 365 apps with Intune. If you install this configuration, it might cause data loss or corruption.
- Multiple required or available app assignments are not additive. A later app assignment will overwrite pre-existing installed app assignments. For example, if the first set of Office apps contains Word, and the later one does not, Word will be uninstalled. This condition does not apply to any Visio or Project applications.
- Multiple Microsoft 365 deployments are not currently supported. Only one deployment will be delivered to the device.
- Office version - Choose whether you want to assign the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Office. You can install the 32-bit version on both 32-bit and 64-bit devices, but you can install the 64-bit version on 64-bit devices only.
- Remove MSI from end-user devices - Choose whether you want to remove pre-existing Office .MSI apps from end-user devices. The installation won't succeed if there are pre-existing .MSI apps on end-user devices. The apps to be uninstalled are not limited to the apps selected for installation in Configure App Suite, as it will remove all Office (MSI) apps from the end user device. For more information, see Remove existing MSI versions of Office when upgrading toMicrosoft 365 Apps. When Intune reinstalls Office on your end user's machines, end users will automatically get the same language packs that they had with previous .MSI Office installations.

When Intune reinstalls Office on your end user's machines, end users will automatically get the same language packs that they had with previous .MSI Office installations.
Version to install: Choose the version of Office that should be installed.
Specific version: If you have chosen Specific as the Version to install in the above setting, you can select to install a specific version of Office for the selected channel on end user devices.
The available versions will change over time. Therefore, when creating a new deployment, the versions available may be newer and not have certain older versions available. Current deployments will continue to deploy the older version, but the version list will be continually updated per channel.
For devices that update their pinned version (or update any other properties) and are deployed as available, the reporting status will show as Installed if they installed the previous version until the device check-in occurs. When the device check-in happens, the status will temporarily change to Unknown, however it will not be shown to the user. When the user initiates the install for the newer available version, the user will see the status changed to Installed.
For more information, see Overview of update channels for Microsoft 365 Apps.
Use shared computer activation: Select this option when multiple users share a computer. For more information, see Overview of shared computer activation for Microsoft 365 Apps.
Automatically accept the app end user license agreement: Select this option if you don't require end users to accept the license agreement. Intune then automatically accepts the agreement.

When you are done, click Create to add the app to Intune.
The Overview blade is displayed.
Deployment details
Once the deployment policy from Intune is assigned to the target machines through Office configuration service provider (CSP), the end device will automatically download the installation package from the officecdn.microsoft.com location. You will see two directories appearing in the Program Files directory:
Under the Microsoft Office directory, a new folder is created where the installation files are stored:
Under the Microsoft Office 15 directory, the Office Click-to-Run installation launcher files are stored. The installation will start automatically if the assignment type is required:
Microsoft Office 32 Bit
The installation will be in silent mode if the assignment of Microsoft 365 is configured as required. The downloaded installation files will be deleted once the installation succeeded. If the assignment is configured as Available, the Office applications will appear in the Company Portal application so that end-users can trigger the installation manually.
Troubleshooting
Intune uses the Office Deployment Tool to download and deploy Microsoft 365 Apps to your client computers using the Office 365 CDN. Reference the best practices outlined in Managing Office 365 endpoints to ensure that your network configuration permits clients to access the CDN directly rather than routing CDN traffic through central proxies to avoid introducing unnecessary latency.
Office 365 32-bit Vs 64-bit
Important
For custom Office Deployment Tool XML installs, the install status only reflects the result of the installation attempt. The install status does not reflect whether the app is currently installed on the machine.
Run the Microsoft Support and Recovery Assistant for Microsoft 365 on a targeted device if you encounter installation or run-time issues.
Additional troubleshooting details
When you are unable to install the Microsoft 365 apps to a device, you must identify whether the issue is Intune-related or OS/Office-related. If you can see the two folders Microsoft Office and Microsoft Office 15 appearing in the Program Files directory of the device, you can confirm that Intune has initiated the deployment successfully. If you cannot see the two folders appearing under Program Files, you should confirm the below cases:
The device is properly enrolled into Microsoft Intune.
There is an active network connection on the device. If the device is in airplane mode, is turned off, or is in a location with no service, the policy will not apply until network connectivity is established.
Both Intune and Microsoft 365 network requirements are met and the related IP ranges are accessible based on the following articles:
The correct groups have been assigned the Microsoft 365 app suite.
In addition, monitor the size of the directory C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeUpdatesDownload. The installation package downloaded from the Intune cloud will be stored in this location. If the size does not increase or only increases very slowly, it is recommended to double-check the network connectivity and bandwidth.
Once you can conclude that both Intune and the network infrastructure work as expected, you should further analyze the issue from an OS perspective. Consider the following conditions:
- The target device must run on Windows 10 Creators Update or later.
- No existing Office apps are opened while Intune deploys the applications.
- Existing MSI versions of Office have been properly removed from the device. Intune utilizes Office Click-to-Run which is not compatible with Office MSI. This behavior is further mentioned in this document:
Office installed with Click-to-Run and Windows Installer on same computer isn't supported - The sign-in user should have permission to install applications on the device.
- Confirm there are no issues based on the Windows Event Viewer log Windows Logs > Applications.
- Capture Office installation verbose logs during the installation. To do this, follow these steps:
- Activate verbose logging for Office installation on the target machines. To do this, run the following command to modify the registry:
reg add HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftClickToRunOverRide /v LogLevel /t REG_DWORD /d 3 - Deploy the Microsoft 365 Apps to the target devices again.
- Wait approximately 15 to 20 minutes and go to the %temp% folder and the %windir%temp folder, sort by Date Modified, pick the {Machine Name}-{TimeStamp}.log files that are modified according to your repro time.
- Run the following command to disable verbose log:
reg delete HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftClickToRunOverRide /v LogLevel /f
The verbose logs can provide further detailed information on the installation process.
- Activate verbose logging for Office installation on the target machines. To do this, run the following command to modify the registry:
