Introduction
In the process of transitioning to endpoint management with Microsoft Intune, administrators will need a method to grant access to on-premise resources, including network drives. While mapping network drives is typically done through group policy, it can also be achieved using Intune. Unlike the group policy management editor, Intune does not have a built-in option for drive mapping. However, Intune is highly customizable and allows administrators to create custom configurations through uploaded ADMX files. The following sections outline the steps involved in creating a drive mapping profile using imported ADMX files.
Procedure
1. Navigate to Windows configuration profiles and create new policy.
2. Select Windows 10 and later for the platform and Templates for the profile type.
3. Select Imported Administrative Templates and click Create
Note: The ADMX and ADML files for drive mapping are already added to UGA's Intune tenant. Other technicians can download the files from the following GitHub repository: https://github.com/DanielBradley1/Public/tree/main/Intune%20Files/Drive%20Mapping
4. Select User Configuration and then Network Drive Mappings
5. Select a drive letter to map the network share
5. Specify the UNC path to the network share and click OK
6. Assign the profile to a user-based security group to allow the network share to be mapped on all Intune-enrolled devices that belong to a specific user.
