Deploy NinjaRMM Agent via Intune | Win32 Packaging

Published 17 March 2026 · 5 min read

NinjaRMM (NinjaOne) is an RMM platform widely used by MSPs and IT teams. The agent installer is downloaded from your NinjaRMM dashboard pre-configured with your organisation token, so no additional command line switches are needed for registration. This guide covers deploying the agent silently via Intune as a Win32 app.

Prerequisites

Download your organisation installer

Log in to your NinjaRMM dashboard and work through to:

Administration → Installers → Windows → Download

NinjaRMM generates an installer pre-configured with your organisation token and default policy. The filename will be NinjaRMMAgentSetup.exe or similar. This installer is unique to your account - do not share it or store it in a public location.

⚠️
Installer is account-specific
The installer you download contains your organisation token embedded. Anyone who runs it will register a device to your NinjaRMM account. Treat it like a credential and store it securely.

Wrap with the Content Prep Tool

IntuneWinAppUtil.exe -c "C:\AppSource\NinjaRMM" -s "NinjaRMMAgentSetup.exe" -o "C:\IntunePackages"

Add the app in Intune

Intune Admin Centre → Apps → Windows → + Add → Windows app (Win32)
  1. Upload the .intunewin file
  2. Name: NinjaRMM Agent
  3. Publisher: NinjaRMM, LLC

# Detect NinjaRMM Agent
$svc = Get-Service -Name "NinjaRMMAgent" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if ($svc) { Write-Output "Detected: $($svc.Status)"; exit 0 } else { exit 1 }
💡
Test your detection rule first
Before deploying to users, install the app manually on a test device and verify the detection rule matches. Check the file path or registry key exists before assigning to a group.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I deploy the NinjaRMM agent via Intune?

Download the NinjaRMM agent installer from your NinjaRMM dashboard under Administration > Installers. The installer is pre-configured with your organisation token. Run it with /S for silent install.

Q: Does the NinjaRMM agent installer need to be configured before deployment?

Yes. The installer you download from NinjaRMM is pre-baked with your organisation and policy settings. Do not use a generic installer - always download from your own NinjaRMM dashboard so the agent registers to your account automatically.

Q: How do I detect the NinjaRMM agent in Intune?

Use a service detection script: check for the NinjaRMMAgent service using Get-Service. Alternatively use a file detection rule: check for NinjaRMMAgent.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\NinjaRMMAgent.

Q: Can I deploy the NinjaRMM agent to devices already managed by Intune?

Yes. NinjaRMM and Intune complement each other - Intune handles policy and app deployment while NinjaRMM provides RMM capabilities like remote access, patching, and monitoring. Both agents can run alongside each other.
