How to Deploy Helperbird Using Microsoft Intune

Microsoft Intune allows you to deploy and manage browser extensions across your organization. Here's how to deploy Helperbird to your users.

Deploy to Microsoft Edge

Step 1: Access Intune Admin Center

Log into the Microsoft Intune admin center with your administrator account.

Step 2: Navigate to Configuration Profiles

Go to Devices > Configuration profiles and click Create profile.

Select:

• Platform: Windows 10 and later
• Profile type: Templates
• Template name: Administrative Templates

Step 3: Configure Edge Extensions

In the profile settings, navigate to: Computer Configuration > Microsoft Edge > Extensions

Enable Control which extensions are installed silently and add Helperbird's Edge extension ID:

bkibfggdahioahpokehoiimdmdjefjmd

Set the installation mode to Force install.

Step 4: Assign the Profile

Assign the configuration profile to your target groups (users or devices) and save.

Deploy to Google Chrome

Step 1: Create a New Profile

In the Intune admin center, go to Devices > Configuration profiles and create a new profile for Chrome.

Step 2: Configure Chrome Extensions

Navigate to the Chrome extension settings and enable Configure the list of force-installed apps and extensions.

Add Helperbird's Chrome extension ID:

ahmapmilbkfamljbpgphfndeemhnajme

Step 3: Add Update URL

For Chrome extensions, you'll also need the update URL:

https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx

The full entry should be:

ahmapmilbkfamljbpgphfndeemhnajme;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx

Step 4: Assign and Deploy

Assign the profile to your target groups and save. The extension will be installed on devices during the next sync.

Verify Deployment

Step 1: Check Device Sync

Ensure target devices have synced with Intune. This can take up to 8 hours for new policies.

Step 2: Verify in Browser

On a target device, open Edge or Chrome and check that Helperbird appears in the extensions list. It should be installed and marked as "Installed by your organization."

Step 3: Test Functionality

Click the Helperbird icon to ensure it opens correctly and features are accessible.

Tip: If the extension doesn't appear immediately, try restarting the browser or forcing a device sync in Intune.
