  • Use assignment filters when you're targeting Intune policies or apps based on device properties (OS, model, manufacturer, ownership, category). Filters evaluate at check-in with no further evaluation delay.
  • Use dynamic groups when you need cross-workload targeting (Conditional Access, licensing), Autopilot profile assignment, or user-based grouping.

Many organizations use both: dynamic groups for cross-workload scenarios and assignment filters for Intune-specific device targeting. For guidance on all available targeting methods, go to Choose the right targeting method in Microsoft Intune.
