Support Custom Requirement Rules for Patch My PC Catalogue Apps in Cloud Merged

We’d like the ability to configure custom requirement logic for Patch My PC catalogue applications when deploying via Patch My PC Cloud (not for custom apps).

Why this matters

  • Requirement rules: Since Intune already supports mixing multiple requirement types (file, registry, script, etc.), it would be valuable if Patch My PC Cloud also allowed us to freely configure and apply custom requirement rules during deployment.

Benefits

  • More precise detection in real-world environments

  • Ability to align app deployments with device-specific customisations

  • Consistency across updates without manual re-work

    In this idea, we will keep track of the requests for the custom requirement rules logic.

    To elaborate on this there should be a built in detection script option to only install if the product is not installed already. We are a new customer and setting up and Adobe Update (for existing) and an Adobe Install (for say AutoPilot), if both are targeted to all devices the existing client PCs result in a chase, you don't know if you are going to download the smaller MSP install or the larger EXE full install. Both will get the update done, but once is more intrusive. PMPC already has the logic in the updates, so reversing that logic to say to only install if the product is not installed would be helpful.

There are times when specific conditions must be met for an application to be installed on a client. For instance, the Global Secure Access Client should only be installed outside of OOBE (Autopilot). Typically, we handle this with a custom requir...

Add Support for Intune “Additional Requirement Rules” in Patch My PC Cloud

Merged
Currently, Intune allows administrators to define Additional Requirement Rules as part of an application’s installation criteria (e.g., verifying the existence of a specific file, registry key, etc.). This ensures that the app only installs when c...
