About ScreenConnect for Intune Remote Assistance
Turn Intune's "Begin a remote assistance session" action into a ScreenConnect launcher.
If your device inventory lives in the Microsoft Intune admin center but your remote-control tool is ConnectWise ScreenConnect®, every session starts with the same ritual: copy the device name, open your Host page, paste, search, join. This extension removes that ritual.
WHAT IT DOES
• On any Intune device page, the "Begin a remote assistance session" action under Remote actions opens ScreenConnect for that exact device.
• Search mode: opens your Host page pre-filtered to the device name.
• Direct mode: goes one step further and automatically joins the matching access session.
• The menu item is re-enabled and restyled to match the portal theme, so it works even when Microsoft's own remote assistance isn't set up.
SETUP — ABOUT 30 SECONDS
1. Click the extension icon.
2. Enter your ScreenConnect base URL — hosted (yourcompany.screenconnect.com) or self-hosted on your own domain.
3. Pick "Search for device name" or "Automatically join session". Auto-join asks for one optional permission, scoped to exactly the URL you entered.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No analytics, no tracking, no external services — the extension makes no network requests of its own; it only opens your ScreenConnect tab.
• Stores two settings (instance URL and launch mode), synced through your own Chrome profile.
• Content scripts run only on the Intune admin center.
GOOD TO KNOW
• Device names must match between Intune and ScreenConnect for search and auto-join to find the machine.
• Auto-join falls back to search mode until its optional permission is granted.
• Works with ScreenConnect cloud and self-hosted/on-premises instances.
