This page will show detailed information for a single package from the package store and allows to provision this package to your environment.
Nearly all packages from the RealmJoin store can either be subscribed for RealmJoin Agent or Intune driven deployment.
RealmJoin driven deployment relies on the RealmJoin agent installed on the device. Using a modified Chocolatey engine and Powershell, all code and installation commands are executed directly on the device. Binaries are downloaded during the installation.
The Intune driven deployment pushes the .intunewin version of the package directly into the tenant. It can be managed either from the RealmJoin portal or in Intune directly. The .intunewin packages contain all binaries as well as a Powershell based deploy kit.
Packages can be subscribed as managed or basic.
Basic packages are available for assignment to groups or users and do not offer additional features. If you've used RealmJoin Classic (2015-2024), you'll be familiar with Basic packages.
Managed packages leave the group management and assignment to the RealmJoin backend. A fixed number if groups is created. The assignment of the package is only available to those. The groups include preview and uninstall groups. The static connection between the RealmJoin backend and the Entra group also allows utilize additional features like the automatic update of packages if a new version is published in RealmJoin.
Sometimes it is necessary to have multiple subscriptions of one craft package. Those craft packages are often used for configurations like printer or network drive mapping and need to be subscribed and assigned multiple times to users because there are multiple printer or network drives to be mapped. Therefore it is important to have a suffix, because RealmJoin only accepts every package ID once. The suffix is modifying the unique ID from "this-id" to "this-id#[your-suffix]".
You can set the suffix, after choosing the subscription type, next to the continue button.
Please only use lowercase letters and dashes ("-") for the suffix!
If you need multiple configurations of an application, e.g. "Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise", you can subscribe it multiple times and change the name during the subscription process, i.e. "Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise - DE", which will be reflected in the managed package groups created by RealmJoin. A suffix is not needed and therefore not available for these type of packages because users can only have one application with one configuration assigned and installed at a time.
You can change the name by choosing your package and subscription type and before hitting continue clicking next to the name in the top left corner to adjust it.
Every package's details page will show an overview of the core properties such as the package's Display Name, Description and Package ID ("Unique RJ ID") on the left side of the screen. This part will not scroll and be always visible in any tab.
