In this post I will show you how to display toast notification on devices in system context using Intune. We will see how to display simple toast with text, toast with logo then header picture.
Context
You want to install an application on a devices
You want to display a toast notification on device after install
You want that this notification is displayed on the user session
The issue
There is two cases.
Case 1: System context
The script is executed in system context.
The application is installed but notification is not displayed for user.
This is because we are running in system context.
Case 2: User context
The script is executed in user context.
The application will need admin rights to be installed.
The notification is displayed in for user.
This is because we are running in user context.
The solution
In order to display a toast notification in system context but for user we will use a well known solution.
If you usually work with MECM, you know that a solution to display notification for user in system context is to use ServiceUI.exe from MDT.
We will then use ServiceUI.exe with our PS1 in a Win32 package.
Get the script

In the GitHub download link you can find the script samples:
- System_Notif_Sample: Notif with just title and message
See below an overview of the notification.

Hi,
Thanks but where is Detection_scripts.ps1 or how to build it ?
Oops, you're right.
I will add it.
In my case I just created a txt script in the notif, my detection script will be to check if this file exists
This is not working
Please can you assist?
I have copied and pasted the ServiceUI.exe and .ps1 file into the Show_notification folder.
I then used the Intune Utility tool to wrap whatever is within this folder (Service UI and .PS1)
I need to understand what you used as the detection script and how it all comes together? the banner doesn't seem to be showing up in the corner.
Loved readding this thank you
