Deploy the Agent

Install the DashX agent on your servers and workstations for full monitoring, remote access, inventory, and updates. Devices enroll using an install token scoped to your organization. Admins only.

1. Generate an install token

1. Go to Admin → Deploy Agent → Install (or the Tokens tab).
2. Set:
   • Label — what this token is for (e.g. Finance laptops); defaults to Quick deploy.
   • Uses — how many installs it allows (leave blank for unlimited).
   • Expiry (hours) — how long it stays valid (default 24).
3. Generate — copy the token. It's embedded in the install command below.

2. Install on a host

1. Pick the platform: Linux, Windows, or macOS.
2. Copy the generated one‑liner (install.sh for Linux/macOS, install.ps1 for Windows) and run it on the target host.
3. The agent installs, enrolls with your org via the token, and the device appears in Fleet within seconds.

3. Roll out at scale (optional)

For many machines, use the mass‑deploy instructions — pick your method and DashX shows step‑by‑step setup wrapping the same install command:

• GPO (Windows Group Policy)
• Jamf (macOS MDM)
• Intune (Windows/macOS MDM)
• RMM (your existing RMM tool)

Manage tokens

The Tokens tab lists active install tokens with their label, remaining uses, and expiry — revoke any you no longer need. (Super admins also see a Pending queue for agents that enrolled without an org token, to approve or remove.)

tip

Use a short expiry and limited uses for a one‑off rollout; use a longer‑lived, labeled token for an ongoing fleet. Revoke tokens after a big deployment finishes.
