We have a customer who primarily use the Web Client and they are looking at rolling out the latest version of this (KB1014488_2405) using Intune. They have asked if there are any parameters that can be applied to manage the install. Other than make it silent though I can't think of what you would/could configure in any parameters. I don't have any personal experience using Intune btw but if I can compose a semi intelligent response that'd help!

Question
Install Webtools Agent & Office Integration via Intune/silently
Answer
Hello!
Looks like there is a lot of info out there on this one:
To install the Laserfiche Webtools Agent and Office Integration silently via Microsoft Intune, follow these steps:
## Prerequisites
1. **Installer Files**: Ensure you have the necessary installer files for both the Laserfiche Webtools Agent and the Office Integration. The primary file for the Office Integration is typically named `LfWebOffice110.exe`, which includes both components.
2. **IntuneWin Package**: Use the IntuneWinAppUtil to package the installer into an `.intunewin` format. This tool converts your installation files into a format that can be deployed via Intune.
## Steps for Silent Installation
### 1. Create IntuneWin Package
- Download and install the **IntuneWinAppUtil** tool.
- Prepare your installation files in a folder.
- Run the following command in Command Prompt to create the package:
```bash
IntuneWinAppUtil -c <source_folder> -s <source_folder>\LfWebOffice110.exe -o <output_folder>
```
Replace `<source_folder>` with the path to your installer files and `<output_folder>` with where you want the `.intunewin` file saved.
### 2. Configure Deployment in Intune
- Log in to the **Microsoft Endpoint Manager Admin Center**.
- Navigate to **Apps** > **Windows** > **Add**.
- Choose **Windows app (Win32)** as the app type.
- Upload your `.intunewin` file created in the previous step.
### 3. Specify Installation Command
For silent installation, specify the command line parameters that suppress UI prompts. For Laserfiche, you might use:
```bash
LfWebOffice110.exe /silent /install
```
Check if there are specific silent install switches available for your version of Laserfiche by using `/help` or checking documentation.
### 4. Assign the App
- After configuring the app details, assign it to a user group or device group as needed.
- Set the installation behavior to "Required" to ensure it installs automatically without user interaction.
### 5. Monitor Installation
Once deployed, you can monitor installation status through Intune's reporting features to ensure that all targeted devices have successfully installed the applications.
## Additional Notes
- The Webtools Agent is essential for enabling communication between the web client and locally installed modules like scanning and Office plugins[5][6].
- Ensure that users have administrative rights on their machines if required by the installer[6][9].
- If issues arise during installation, consult Laserfiche support or community forums for troubleshooting specific errors related to your environment[7][10].
By following these steps, you can efficiently deploy Laserfiche Webtools Agent and Office Integration silently using Intune.
