Using Microsoft Intune to deploy Blumira Agent

Users can deploy Blumira Agent in bulk with Microsoft Intune unified endpoint manager. After copying the agent installation script from the Installation page (Blumira Agent > Installation), complete the steps below to run the script in PowerShell.

Note: Due to a limitation in how Microsoft syncs configurations with Intune, Blumira Agent installation via Intune can take up to 72 hours to complete.

To deploy Blumira Agent via Intune, do the following:

  1. In Blumira, navigate to Blumira Agent > Installation.
  2. Select an existing Windows-supported installation key from your list or create a new Windows installation key.

  3. Copy the provided installation script, and save it locally in a file with the .ps1 file extension.

    Note: Your text editor might not allow you to save in a .ps1 format. In this case, you can save the file in the .txt format, and change the extension to .ps1 in the filename. 
  4. Log in to the Microsoft Intune admin center.
  5. Navigate to Devices > Windows > Windows scripts (under "Windows policies").

    Tip: Alternatively, you can navigate to Devices > Scripts and remediations > Platform scripts
  6. Click + Add.
  7. In the Basics tab, type a name for the script. 
  8. (Optional) Type a description for the script. 
  9. Click Next.
  10. In the Script settings tab, configure the following:
    1. Next to the Script location box, click the folder icon and then upload the installation script file that you saved in previous steps.
    2. Next to Run this script using the logged-on credentials, select No.
    3. Next to Enforce script signature check, select No.
    4. Next to Run script in 64-bit PowerShell host, select Yes.
  11. Click Next
  12. In the Assignments tab, select the Microsoft Entra user groups or device groups on which you want to install the agent. 

    Note: We recommend you test with a small group first.
  13. Click Next, and then review your settings. 
  14. Click Create to deploy the script.
