Deploying the Bubble Desktop application via Intune can be much simpler than many partners think. The partner portal has long included a feature that is often overlooked but can make a big difference in the installation process. There is a fixed download link available that always automatically points to the latest stable release of Bubble Desktop. As a result, partners no longer need to manually check which version is current, because Intune or an automated script will always fetch the correct release.
This feature can be found in the partner portal under Software, where the latest release button is located in the top right corner. This button lets you choose a download link that always points to the Windows MSI or to the macOS installer. Both links are publicly accessible, meaning no authorization is required to start the download. This makes them particularly suitable for automated processes that need to retrieve software independently.
For partners deploying Bubble Desktop using Intune, this offers clear advantages. Instead of manually processing updates and adjusting scripts, Intune can now install the latest version without any intervention. Your script only needs to use the fixed link and run the installation. Because the link never changes, the process continues to work automatically, even when new releases are published. This saves time, prevents errors, and ensures smooth deployment of Bubble Desktop.
This existing but often overlooked option makes managing Bubble Desktop via Intune significantly easier. By using the fixed download link, the entire process becomes low-maintenance, allowing partners to work more efficiently while ensuring the software is always up to date.
If you want to make things even simpler, choose Bubble Cloud. This version runs entirely in the cloud, eliminating the need for local installations, ensuring users always work with the most up-to-date version, and enabling centralized management through the web configurator. Only in specific situations where a local connection is required is Bubble Desktop still necessary. In all other cases, Bubble Cloud is the smarter and more future-proof choice. We have written extensively about this in an earlier blog that explains when Bubble Cloud is preferred over the traditional Bubble Desktop deployment.
