Is the GPO also applied together with Intune policy? If yes, then GPO will take precedence.
Migrate LAPS from GPO to Intune
I have LAPS configured using Group Policy, and it's working fine. Now, I would like to migrate the management to Intune. I followed an article I found online and set up our configuration accordingly, but I can't see the local administrator password in the Intune portal (it's not working).
What did I miss, or what should I do to successfully migrate LAPS from GPO to Intune?
1.I have enabled Azure AD LAPS within my Azure Tenant: Entra ID > Devices > Device Settings > Enable Microsoft Entra Local Administrator Password Solution (LAPS)
- I have enabled the Built-in Administrator Account: Devices > Configuration profiles > Create profile....Local Policies Security Options (Enabled).
3.Configured the LAPS Policy: In the Intune admin center, Endpoint security > Account protection > Create policy.
- Prerequisite: Windows platform: Windows 11 23H2
Microsoft Security | Intune | Configuration

2025-08-19T05:01:03.2566667+00:00 Yes, both the GPO and Intune policies are applied together. I excluded my test workstations from GPO-2, do I also need to exclude them from GPO-1?
GPO-1:
Computer Configuration > Policies >Policies > Security Settings> Local Policies/Security Options
Accounts: Administrator account status : Enabled
Accounts: Rename administrator account : "CSAdmin"
GPO-2:
Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > LAPS > Policy
Do not allow password expiration time longer than required by policy Enabled
Enable local admin password management Enabled
Password Settings Enabled
