In this post, I will show you how to export Intune device configuration profiles to a .csv file. You can export device configuration profiles in Intune to an Excel .CSV file and review each profile.
In Intune, Device profiles allow you to add and configure settings, and then push these settings to devices in your organization.
When you create a device profile in Microsoft Intune, the profile type is usually Administrative Templates, Settings Catalog, Baselines or Templates.
You can create profiles for different devices and different platforms, including iOS/iPadOS, Android device administrator, Android Enterprise, and Windows.
You can then use Intune to apply or assign the profile to the devices. When you have many device configuration profiles in Intune, you can export all of them to a .CSV file. This will help you analyze the device profiles to find out if the profiles are required or can be deleted.
Here are few examples of device configuration profiles created in Intune for Windows devices:
- Remove or Disable Task Manager using Intune (MEM)
- Configure Microsoft Defender SmartScreen using Intune
- How to Configure Power Options using Intune

How to Export Intune Device Configuration Profiles
You can export device configuration profiles in Intune from the Microsoft Endpoint Admin center.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.
- Select Devices > Windows > Configuration Profiles.
- Click the Export option to export all the Device Configuration Profiles to a .CSV file.
Shortly a file will be downloaded in your browser that will have a list of exported device profiles. The file name begins with Intune_Device_Configuration_Profiles_Date_Time_Randomnumber.csv.
If you click the Notifications icon in top-right corner of MEM admin center, you see Exporting Profile – Export Completed notification. This indicates the device configuration profiles have been exported successfully.
You can now open the exported device configuration profiles .CSV file using Microsoft Excel application. The below screenshot shows the list of all the Device Configuration Profiles exported out of Intune.
When you export device configuration profiles, the following data are exported:
- Profile Name
- Platform
- Profile Type
- Last Modified Date and Time
- Scope Tags
Note: When you export the configuration profiles, by default, all the profiles existing in Intune are exported. There is no way to export a single configuration profile.
Here is a table that lists all the device configuration profiles that were exported from Intune console. It is easy to analyze each of the profile and find out if the profiles can be deleted or if there are any duplicate settings catalog profiles.
