How to Provision Devices (Operating System Delivery + Device Configuration with NinjaOne)

Join NinjaOne Field CTO Jeff Hunter for a new series - NinjaOne01, where we'll explore how to use NinjaOne in a variety of ways to solve problems. First up, how to automate the process of provisioning a device by delivering the operating system, including the NinjaOne agent with a provisioning package, and having NinjaOne deploy all the device configurations that the end user needs to be productive.

Great video, to the point and well presented. Looking forward to seeing more and possibly moving over to NinjaOne soon.

I have started as an intern recently and was tasked to use Ninjaone as part of my work. I have been going through the documentation and I have to say, even for someone as new as me, it was presented in a way that was easy to follow. Glad to have caught the start of this series, as I'm going to try brushing up my skills to make the most out of my current placement. Thanks for the content!

Hi Jeff, as usual.. perfect presentation.
I am a NinjaOne customer and like to see more on the Automations on the Scheduled Automation "Device Configuration"
Did you write up that part as well? I would like to learn which scripts you have used with wich options. And where the script comes from (most likely from the Templates, but a list would be good).
have you written this up in another blog within the Ninja Dojo?

How could this be done for a MSP? Since the ninja installer and the Autopilot tenant to enroll changes every certain amount of devices. For now it seems easy to use for in house devices.

I have a question how long did the install take from USB? Also if I want to use the key for windows that dell provides in their systems the (digital license). Will it pick up the key automatically and activate it since its in the bios?

I tried this with Windows 10... worked perfect. Change the Start-OSDCloud to "Start-OSDCloud -OSVersion 'Windows 11' -OSBuild 23H2 -OSEdition Pro -OSLanguage en-us OSLicense Retail -ZTI" hoping to duplicate with Windows 11. It installs... but is entirely interactive once you get to the OOB experience. Any ideas?

I seem to have done something wrong, It fails on the first step (>start /wait Powershell -NoL -C Invoke-WebPScript..)
And then I get the message "Windows cannot find 'Powershell'.
Is it because there doesn 't seem to be a step beforehand importing the Powershell module?
Or am I missing something else?

Great video, but I have the following problem: Everything works so far, but I have the problem that the automatic installation of Windows starts again and again from the beginning, like an endless loop, can someone help me here?

Hey Jeff or fell team member, I have ran in to an issue that I am unable to solve. The OSDCloud installer is working wonderfully along with the Windows Configuration to install Ninja. My issue is no matter what script that I add to the Ninja policy scheduled automations that is attached to this installer, the scripts do not run. Within Ninja, I do not see any scripts listed in the activities section of the PC like shown in your video. I have changed settings from run immediately to System Started to user login with the same issue. If I run the scripts from Ninja directly on the machine after the install, they all work as expected. Am I missing something?
