How can users be imported into Intune using Active Directory?

The correct approach to import users into Microsoft Intune using Active Directory involves accessing the Azure portal at portal.office.com with administrator credentials. This method is essential because Microsoft Intune is integrated with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD), which manages user identities and access.

By logging into the Azure portal, administrators can easily manage user accounts, configure their properties, and perform synchronization tasks. This integration allows seamless control over user provisioning and ensures that users within the organization are appropriately authenticated and authorized to access Intune and the resources it manages.

Other methods such as using the Intune management portal for adding users manually or utilizing command line interfaces are not the standard or preferred methods for user import through Active Directory. While third-party software may facilitate user synchronization, relying on Microsoft’s direct solutions provides a more coherent and secure environment for user management.
