I've been deploying scripts through Intune, and while the logs report success, it's like nothing actually changes. Everything appears fine on paper, but in reality, I'm not seeing any results. A lot of folks have shared similar experiences, feeling as if Intune is 'gaslighting' us with these phantom deployments. How do you handle such situations when it seems like everything is working but nothing is happening?

Have you tried using the Intune Debug Toolkit? It really helps cut through the clutter from the logs. Sometimes, it’s just minor issues like context discrepancies or modules not being installed that trip us up.
Try starting with something simple, like deploying a basic text file to the user's temp folder. If that goes well, then build on it. Often, something on the front end is blocking the deployment, so it's good to check step by step.
I've started favoring remediation scripts over standard ones lately. They may run daily or weekly, but at least they provide better output, ensuring devices get updated configurations reliably without any sneaky failures.
First things first, check the Intune logs on the client device. Those can give you insight into what’s actually happening. If you want to force a script redeployment, I found a neat guide on how to do that with PowerShell. It's worth checking out!
Dude, you've gotta read the logs! It's where the real story is told. I've dealt with Intune issues by making sure I incorporate proper logging and error exit codes in my scripts. It's not that Intune fails to execute PowerShell; it's usually some other wrench in the gears causing the hiccup.
Absolutely, diving into the client-side logs is crucial. Often, scripts report 'success' but might be running in the wrong context, like under a user instead of SYSTEM, or they can exit too early. Some teams get around these by using delayed executions or ensuring the session is ready. It's frustrating, since everything looks fine but nothing hits home.
