Azure Resource Query - Import Assets

[Jim]

Hi, 

 

We have successfully got our servers updating in Hornbill from Azure Arc, Is there any information on how we can update the software inventory for the servers or refer to a defined query in Log Analytics Workspace at all?

[Jim]

Any info on this at all? our infra team would really like to see the installed software from within Hornbill also

Hi @Jim,

My Apologies for the delayed response. Neither MS Intune nor MS Arc Imports Tools can retrieve installed software details from Azure. This is due to performance reasons related to how this information would need to be accessed due to a lack of a suitable Microsoft API. During a conversation with the Integration Developers team, I was informed that Microsoft recently provided a new API that may be able to resolve the issue. However, this new API is only available for Intune; there does not look to be an equivalent for MS Arc at the moment, and therefore, until a better method is available, hands are currently tied. 

Our development team will be looking out for any further developments in alternative methods if possible, and once available, will be looking to update the tools accordingly. One thing that would be useful to the team in order for them to calculate the potential load, is if you could provide the following details:

1. The approximate number of Detected Applications.
2. The number of Managed Devices

About 4,000 endpoints and 180,000 rows for installed applications. We previously did this via KACE.
