Add supersedence rules automatically

[alexhass]

Expected Behavior

If I'm updating our VC packages in intune, the previous versions should be automatically updated.

Current Behavior

Previous versions are not automatically superseded with "update" mode.

Run this before the import:

$Win32AppPackagePreviousSearch = 'Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2022 * x64'
$Win32AppPackagePreviousVersions = Get-IntuneWin32App -DisplayName $Win32AppPackagePreviousSearch
$Win32AppPackagePreviousVersions | fl id, displayName

And this after the import:

# Add supersedence rules for all previous app versions
$SupersedenceRules = @()
$Win32AppPackagePreviousVersions | ForEach-Object {
	$SupersedenceRules += New-IntuneWin32AppSupersedence -ID $_.id -SupersedenceType 'Update'
}
Add-IntuneWin32AppSupersedence -ID $Win32App.id -Supersedence $SupersedenceRules

In the latest VcRedist, an identifier is added to the imported application. For example, all Visual C++ Redistributables 2022 x64 will share the same package id, allowing the application to be identified across multiple versions.

Here's an example, of importing the latest 2022 versions, configuring assignments and add supersedence for any existing 2022 applications already in Intune.

$ExistingApps = Get-VcIntuneApplication
Write-Host "Found $($ExistingApps.Count) existing VC++ applications in Intune."

$NewApps = Get-VcList | Save-VcRedist -Path "C:\Temp\VcRedist" | Import-VcIntuneApplication
Write-Host "Imported $($NewApps.Count) new VC++ applications."

foreach ($App in $NewApps) {
    Write-Host "Adding All Devices assignment for $($App.id)"
    $params = @{
        Id                           = $App.id
        Intent                       = "required"
        Notification                 = "showReboot"
        DeliveryOptimizationPriority = "notConfigured"
        UseLocalTime                 = $true
        AvailableTime                = $(Get-Date -Hour 18 -Minute 0 -Second 0)
        DeadlineTime                 = $(Get-Date -Hour 18 -Minute 0 -Second 0).AddDays(1)
        EnableRestartGracePeriod     = $true
        RestartGracePeriod           = 1440
        RestartNotificationSnooze    = 240
        RestartCountDownDisplay      = 15
    }
    Add-IntuneWin32AppAssignmentAllDevices @params

    $MatchingApp = $ExistingApps | Where-Object { $_.PackageId -eq $($App.notes | ConvertFrom-Json -ErrorAction "Stop").Guid }
    if ($null -ne $MatchingApp) {
        foreach ($Item in $MatchingApp) {
            Write-Host "Adding supersedence rule for $($Item.id) to $($App.id)"
            $SupersedenceRule = New-IntuneWin32AppSupersedence -ID $Item.id -SupersedenceType 'Update'
            Add-IntuneWin32AppSupersedence -ID $App.id -Supersedence $SupersedenceRule
        }
    }
}
