This document guides the enterprise admin of a Microsoft customer tenant through the typical process of silently deploying and provisioning the Tweelin Telemetry Agent for Windows, without any end user involvement.
The process outlined in this document may vary based on your organization configuration and tools.
Before you start...
- Make sure you are a Microsoft Azure administrator.
- Make sure you have deployed Tweelin for Microsoft Teams. For guidance, please, follow our Enterprise Deployment Guide.
- Make sure you have a Microsoft Intune Manager license. Go to intune.microsoft.com to verify.
- Download the PowerShell auto-provisioning script for the Tweelin Windows Telemetry Agent.
- Download the Tweelin Windows Telemetry Agent package which supports auto-provisioning via Intune (extension .intunewin).
Summary: Perform 2 Macro Phases
PHASE 1- Create a configuration profile
In order to allow for auto provisioning, it is necessary to create a configuration profile.
STEP 1 – Log into the Microsoft Intune admin center
STEP 2 – Navigate to Devices → Manage devices → Scripts and remediations → Platform scripts tab → + Add → Windows 10 and later
STEP 3 – Add PowerShell script name and description
STEP 4 – Configure the script settings
- Specify the location of the previously downloaded PowerShell auto-provisioning script and upload it to Intune. If you haven’t downloaded it yet, you can find it here.
- Set “Enforce script signature check” as “No”.
- Set “Run script in 64 bit PowerShell Host” as “Yes”.
STEP 5 – Select the appropriate user groups for which auto-provisioning will be performed
STEP 6 – Review and Add
The PowerShell script will be created
PHASE 2- Deploy the Tweelin Windows Telemetry Agent
STEP 1 – Navigate to Apps → Windows apps → Create
STEP 2 – As app type, select “Windows app (Win32)”
STEP 3 – Select the app package file with “.intunewin” extension, that you have previously downloaded
If you haven’t downloaded it yet, you can find it here.
