My Question or Issue

Hello. I am the Systems Administrator and we use the Microsoft Company Portal to control what applications our employees are allowed to download. I have some Spotify users that want to use the desktop application to listen to Spotify using their personal accounts. While Spotify is in the Microsoft Store as a downloadable program, it does not populate in Intune which means that it cannot be downloadable by the employees at my company. In order for it to be in the Company Portal, I have to package Spotify into a .intunewin but when I try to download it from the Company Portal, it just fails. I have looked all over for documentation pertaining to this but have been unsuccessful. Any information would be much appreciated.

You can use Winget to deliver the app via company portal.

Here is an example

$WinGetResolve = Resolve-Path "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller_*_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\winget.exe"

$WinGetPathExe = $WinGetResolve[-1].Path

$WinGetPath = Split-Path -Path $WinGetPathExe -Parent

[string]$wingetPath = Join-Path $WinGetPath "winget.exe"

Execute-Process -Path $wingetPath -Parameters "install -e --id Spotify.Spotify --scope=machine --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements --silent"

You can find a list of apps to install via winget at wingetrun
