Deploy Power BI ALM Toolkit to Microsoft Intune
Power BI ALM ToolkitWindowsversion 5.1.20, 5 November 2025
Power BI ALM Toolkit is in the PatchBee catalog as a Windows app from Power BI ALM Toolkit, synced from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). Pick it in the App Library and PatchBee writes the deployment plan below, builds the package, publishes it to your Intune tenant and assigns it to the Entra groups you choose. New versions then follow through your update rings.
The plan PatchBee writes
Power BI ALM Toolkit as an Intune app
The standard form for a MSI (x64, per machine). The real plan is generated from the installer when you package, and shown in full before anything is published; every field can be changed.
- Intune app type
- Windows app (Win32), .intunewin
- Install
- msiexec /i "PowerBIALMToolkit.msi" /qn /norestart
- Uninstall
- msiexec /x {5D1266FE-5004-42C2-B969-59231F880C54} /qn /norestart
- Detection
- MSI product code. Product code {5D1266FE-5004-42C2-B969-59231F880C54}, version 5.1.20 or newer.
- Requirements
- x64 · per machine
Installers in version 5.1.20
| Architecture | Type | Scope | Hash |
|---|---|---|---|
| x64 | MSI | per machine | SHA-256 published |
PatchBee downloads the installer from the publisher's own URL and verifies its SHA-256 against the catalog before packaging. "None published" means the source carries no hash for this download, so that check has nothing to compare against; packaging still works.
About Power BI ALM Toolkit
The ALM Toolkit is a schema comparison tool for Power BI semantic models that enables scenarios such as:
- Easily deploy changes only to model metadata, whilst retaining data including incremental refresh data.
- Diff & merge across models/repos with guardrails to ensure the integrity of the resulting model metadata. Pick and choose objects to reuse in other models.
- Reuse common objects across models. For example, conformed dimensions, standardized date dimensions, and common measures to be standardized across models.
- Command-line execution for automation.
ALM Toolkit supports the Tabular Model Definition Language (TMDL) format to view semantic model metadata in a human-readable, YAML-like syntax. See the TMDL documentation page for more information.

How this becomes an app in your tenant
Sign in with your Microsoft work account and connect your Intune tenant once. Find Power BI ALM Toolkit in the App Library, open its plan (the commands, detection rule and requirements above, editable) and publish: PatchBee downloads and verifies the installer, builds the package, creates the Intune app and assigns your groups. When Power BI ALM Toolkit ships a new version, PatchBee detects it and rolls it out through your rings, with supersedence and rollback.

Catalog data as of 11 October 2026, from the Windows Package Manager community repository (winget). The product re-reads the source every night and plans against the live catalog, so the version here may already be one behind. Nothing is published to a tenant without an administrator approving the plan.
