With Windows 10 1607 from last year it is possible to use extensions for Microsoft Edge browser that are delivered from Windows Store.

In a Modern Device management scenario where Windows 10 is MDM managed with Intune – we have a way to deploy extensions for Microsoft Edge Browser with Windows Store for Business integrated with Intune.

First we have to “buy” the extension from Windows Store for Business.

I will get “Access Panel Extension App”

Click Get the app

Then the “Access Panel Extension” app is in the inventory – and next time Intune do a sync with Windows Store for Business the app shows up in the Intune Portal.

This extension is required to access specific applications at https://myapps.microsoft.com, also known as the Access Panel, which provides single sign-on to cloud applications within your organization.

Here you can see more examples on Extensions for Microsoft Edge:

After Intune has done the sync with Windows Store for Business the app shows up in Intune.

Go the Intune Portal and click on mobile apps

Find the “Access Panel Extension”

1. Click on Assignments
2. Select groups
3. Search for the group you what to deploy it to
4. Select the group
5. Click select

1. Select Type = Required
2. Click save

Now it is starting to deploy to the groups of users the next time there Windows 10 devices is syncing with Intune.

And the “Access Panel Extension” is getting installed on the device

This works with Windows 10 1607.

Windows 10 1703 it gets an error when trying to install the app!

Log for it in the local event viewer under:

Microsoft – Windows – DeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostics-Provider

MDM ConfigurationManager: Command failure status.
