Intune (MDM) Win32 App - How to update the Version Number with PowerShell?

Question

I go to "endpoint.microsoft.com", and I login

And I click on "Apps" on the left side

And I click on "All Apps" in the middle

And I see my Win32 app "Test App" displayed in the results.

I click on "Test App" and I see that it's been installed 16 times. And its Version number is currently: 2.5

How do I, with PowerShell, change its version number to 3?

I have tried installing the module "Microsoft.Graph.Intune"

And after I run a Connect-MSGraph command

I run a Get-IntuneMobileApp | where {$_.DisplayName -eq 'Test App'}

And I'm able to see the App:

@odata.type                    : #microsoft.graph.win32LobApp

                                 operationType=exists; operator=notConfigured; comparisonValue=}}

returnCodes                    : {@{returnCode=0; type=success}, @{returnCode=1707; type=success}, @{returnCode=3010;
                                 type=softReboot}, @{returnCode=1641; type=hardReboot}...}

But I don't see its Version Number

And how do I update its Version Number with PowerShell?

When I update the app by hand, and change its Version Number, it kicks off a new set of installations of the latest version.

I'm trying to kick off that process with PowerShell.

Based on the GraphAPI Doc for win32lobapp apps, the version is the ProductVersion number pulled from the MSI info win32LobAppMsiInformation property:

{
  "@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.win32LobApp",
  "id": "String (identifier)",
  "displayName": "String",
...trimmed...
"msiInformation": {
    "@odata.type": "microsoft.graph.win32LobAppMsiInformation",
    "productCode": "String",
    "productVersion": "String",
    "upgradeCode": "String",
    "requiresReboot": true,
    "packageType": "String",
    "productName": "String",
    "publisher": "String"
  }
}

I don't have MDM apps to test with, but you should be able to see those properties with something like:

Get-IntuneMobileApp | 
  where {$_.DisplayName -eq 'Test App'} |
  Select-Object -ExpandProperty msiInformation

If it returns blank then try running it in powershell v7+ (there are some improvements to JSON) and/or update the Graph module.

If the cmdlets aren't built out enough to update that property yet, you can always use Invoke-MgGraphRequest
