Let’s get started! First, you’ll need to export a GPO as a XML file. Previously we had to use MMAT (like in this blog post: How to use MMAT to convert DISA STIG GPOs to Intune CSPs – Device Advice), so this tool is a much welcome improvement. Microsoft Endpoint Manager has a new feature called Group Policy analytics – which drastically simplifies this process. It’s not exactly correct, but you can think of CSPs as the mobile device management (MDM) version of GPOs. If you’re interested in reducing some of the load on your on-premises environment, transitioning GPOs (group policy objects) to CSPs (configuration service providers) is a great way to start! As a quick background – CSPs implement OMA-URI paths, and are used to configure Windows 10 devices.
