# Releases

# 0.56.5

Released 2023-05-11

# Improvements

Made it more obvious when actions are skipped because reboots are suppressed and the action's software requires a reboot
Removed the hardcoded "Uninstall by Package Info" logic from software uninstall steps since it could cause unexpected reboots
Updated the description of the tenant Onboarding Patching preference to indicate that it currently only applies to CW Automate
Added PowerShell Version to computer overview tab

# Bug Fixes

Added missing logs around reboot checks
Fixed a XSS vulnerability found in param block descriptions
Fixed an issue where GDAP customers that need consent would show up as consented when they had previously been synced as a non-GDAP customer
Fixed an issue with quick deploy where it would sometimes not kick off the session
Fixed an issue where dynamic form errors were not clearing upon refresh
Fixed issue where the url in a cloud session's support request was incorrect

# 0.56.4

Released 2023-05-08

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where duplicating a task would not copy over all data
Fixed an issue that sometimes prevented the onboarding task forms from loading
Fixed an issue where scripts with the category "Filter Script Deployment Target" and "Metascript Deployment Target" were not automatically selecting the correct execution context
Fixed an issue where some actions would have incorrect parameters or variables when multiple sessions executed the script at the same time

# 0.56.3

Released 2023-05-04

# Improvements

Added a note to the ImmyBot Agent installer modal indicating that there's an issue on Windows 11 22h2 builds that prevent the PPKG from working and added notes on how to resolve it.

# Bug Fixes

Added missed user auditing to certain software, task, and deployment operations
Fixed an issue with assigning tags while creating a new tenant
Fixed an issue where schedules targeting a specific maintenance item were picking up onboarding only deployments
Fixed an issue where some macOS agents were not being excluded
Fixed an issue where navigating to a computer that did not exist threw a non-404 unexpected error
Fixed an issue with schedules targeting CW Control groups not being limited to the specified tenant on the schedule
Fixed an issue with sessions failing when attempting to retrieve bulk software and the bulk software response contains text that is not representable as valid UTF-8

# 0.56.2

Released 2023-04-27

# Improvements

Updated the alert on the schedule details page when targeting a specific item to state, "Metascript deployment targets are not supported when the schedule is limited to a specific maintenance item because it would require executing a script against every computer in the system."
Azure User Sync now excludes external users
Renamed the "All" tab to "Active" on the computer list page to avoid confusion. "All" implies it should contain "Pending" agents, which it does not.

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where new instances would not be able to use immy agent provider
Fixed an issue where some business hours were not being computed correctly and the session incorrectly reported that we were within business hours
Fixed an issue with the computer terminal not maintaining execution when toggling between tabs
Fixed bug where exceptions that occur while resolving Cw Control remote screen share URLs caused the maintenance session page to not load any data
Software Post Uninstall phase is now only shown when the software or version has a post uninstall script

# 0.56.1

Released 2023-04-24

# Improvements

When an agent is identified to a computer that already exists in ImmyBot, we will now automatically select the "Wiped" option if the computer name and OS install date reported by the agent are different than what is reported by the existing computer.
The ephemeral agent no longer extracts to c:/windows/temp. This alleviates issues around A/V blocking .dlls coming from the temp directory, and also alleviates issues around windows randomly removing required .dlls for the ephemeral agent to run.
Updated the identification log text that explains why a manual decision is required
Added the manufacturer name and serial number of an agent in the agent identification logs when resolving a trusted manufacturer
Added ability to group by target on the deployment list

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue causing new instances immy agent integration to not be properly initialized
Fixed a bug where alternate providers were not getting disabled when dynamic versions are selected
Fixed an internal issue where Immy Support Technicians were not allowed access due to existing expired access requests
Fixed an issue where a pending agent that has the same trusted manufacturer and serial number as an existing computer would sometimes require a manual decision instead of automatically replacing the existing agent

# 0.56.0

Released 2023-04-17

# Tenant and Person tags

Support has been added for Person and Tenant tags.

A tag no longer has a "type". A tag can be assigned to any person, computer, or tenant.

Deploying a software or maintenance task with a tag target type now resolves computers for the following:

computers that have the tag
computers for tenants that have the tag
primary computers for people who have the tag

Deploying a cloud task can now target tags assigned to tenants, as well as integrations that support client groups.

Now that tags can target tenants, you can create a schedule that targets tags to run a single schedule across multiple tenants.

Tags for tenants can be assigned on the tenant list and tenant details pages.

Tags for persons can be assigned on the person list and person details pages.

# ImmyBot Session Support Requests

You can now request support from Immy technicians from maintenance sessions. When requesting support, you can:

Add details about the issue you are experiencing
Select whether an Immy technician should be allowed to access your instance
- If selected, there is no need to approve an access request for the Immy tech to log into your instance
- You can disable Immy technician access at any time from the Application Preferences page
Select whether the session's logs and computer timeline events should be available in the support ticket
- The logs / timeline events are formatted as a text file and stored in your instance's blob storage account, and a link to download this file is added to the support ticket
- You can also download this file before submitting the ticket

# Global Script Editor

Below are some of the new features in the script editor!

General VS Code "vibe"
Open/Close multiple scripts(tabs)
Go To Definition support for function scripts
Script Search and Directory Views with result highlighting
Variable preview based on script execution context, category, and a selected target (computer, tenant, task, software).
Parameter Form for scripts with param blocks, selected software that have configuration tasks, and selected maintenance tasks that have parameters
Closing a script tab with unsaved changes alerts you
Function name/definition view that shows the results of Get-Help {functionName} -Detailed | Out-String
Basic hotkey support

You can access the script editor from the top navbar or in the sidebar under Library -> Script Editor

# Parameter Value View

Sometimes deployment parameters result in an exception when performing the binding. This can happens when the parameter types have been updated but the values have not.

You can now toggle the parameter form to a value view that provides you the ability to remove/reset values that may be causing issues.

# Tenant Software

The Tenant Details Page now has a Software tab that displays a grid of software that was detected on endpoint machines and could be matched to software in the global database. The result set is grouped by global software name/ID and sorted descending by total installs (i.e. number of devices that have it installed). Each group has a Deploy button, which will open a new deployment for the software that targets all computers under that tenant.

# Other Improvements

On the Deployment List Page, tenants with missing or deleted tenants will show Tenant no-longer exists under tenant column and the entire row will be highlighted red.
The current ImmyBot agent version is now shown on the frontend in the installer modal and in the sidebar's ImmyBot Agent Download box.
Added the ImmyBot version in a session log at the start of a session. This will be useful when debugging session-related issues since we can correlate the problems to the version ImmyBot was on when the session ran.
You can now install the ImmyBot Script Editor as a progressive web app.
Cleaned up some of the error messages returned by integrations
Fixed issues with tag deployments not getting applied during an onboarding session
System scripts that use param blocks will now through an error letting users known that param blocks are only available in metascript and cloudscript contexts.
Maintenance tasks can now specify function scripts
Added a session log when attempting to apply a windows patch since there are currently none
Added a check for whether the computer is online before attempting to apply windows patches
Get-Hash now supports HMACMD5, HMACSHA256, HMACSHA384, and HMACSHA512
Added back session list "Completed" count and filter and removed "All"
Added internal auditing tables for scripts, software, tasks, and deployments. The future plan is to expose an audit trail for these objects so you can see who made changes and when they were made, with the ability to revert changes.
Moved the tenant tag selector to the edit tab. The tags now show inline next to the tenant's name
Made session log database handler more efficient by breaking large updates into smaller queries
Reduced likelihood of CW Control Integration failing to sync devices.
The deployment page no longer hangs when attempting to preview/deploy to a large number of computers
Improved Package Analyzer to handle improper/malformed content-disposition header returned from some file servers, which resulted in a failure to analyze a package.
Expired users can now be un-expired from the edit user form
Wait-ImmyComputer (and therefor Restart-ComputerAndWait) has been improved with a new RebootWithPollingFallback option that should help alleviate issues with ImmyBot not detecting when a machine has been rebooted and now back online. This option will periodically poll providers/integrations about machine connectivity status if they haven't reported target machine as online after an expected WaitForEventTimeout period.
You can now define multiple functions in a Module script and import them into other scripts using Import-Module
Maintenance task get/test can now create child actions during detection using the new cmdlet Add-ImmyMaintenanceActionChild

Resolve potential bug with ImmyAgent causing IoTHub issues
Fixed browser warnings about using variable names starting with $ or _ in setup()
Restart-ComputerAndWait now will show agent timeline events in correct order
Fixed issue with gdap customers not showing up when azure permission level is reset from custom to default and custom didn't have correct permissions

Fixed an issue where reboots were occurring during business hours than spanned over to the following day. e.g 9am - 4am
Fixed an issue where the Primary User task was running after Set Computer Name and Domain Join. This was causing computers to not get the correct name when the computer is named after the primary user.
Fixed a long-standing issue where Immy PPKGs wouldn't reliably disable sleep/hibernation when the option was checked on some computers. This has been improved.

# 0.55.0

Released 2023-02-07

# Stale Computers

A new "Stale" tab has been added to the Computers List page showing devices that have not had a recent agent connection event. By default, the staleness threshold is 30 days. This value can be configured from the System Preferences page.

This feature can be used to cleanup old computers when you are coming close to the maximum limit for computers.

# Dynamic Maintenance Task Parameters (PowerShell Param Blocks)

Maintenance task parameters can now be defined dynamically using a script's param() and dynamicparam{} block.

PowerShell has a robust parameter definition and validation engine. By leveraging it, we give ourselves features like:

Parameter Sets
Regex Validation
Conditional/Dynamic Parameters
Dynamic Values
Type enforcement

When deploying Onboarding tasks, you can define which parameters should be visible to the technician, while hiding others or setting their defaults in the Deployment.

# GDAP Support

"GDAP Customer Syncing" option has been added to the Azure settings page. Enabling this option does the following:

Adds the DelegatedAdminRelationship.Read.All permission to ImmyBot's default app registration, to allow retrieval of your GDAP customers
Enables ImmyBot to offer a consent link for each GDAP customer to be synced by ImmyBot

Please see the GDAP Customer Syncing documentation (opens new window) for usage details.

Important! If you are using a custom app registration (also known as the CSP App Registration), your app registration must have a Web redirect URI of https://<your-domain>.immy.bot/consent-callback, replacing <your-domain> appropriately. Please see the updated custom app registration docs (opens new window) for details on how to add the redirect URI

# Other Improvements

Onboarding only maintenance tasks now have an option to "Ignore during automatic onboarding". This is useful if you have an installer set to automatically onboard the computer and the task requires data that wasn't able to be provided.
Improved code around establishing Ephemeral Agent connection & eliminated possible race condition.
Prepend an "[ImmyBot User]" tag for the username that displays for remote session started from a supported provider. This makes it clear at a glance who is connected to a machine initiated from an ImmyBot user.
Removed the need for executing suspicious-looking encoded powershell for N-Central integration which would trigger some AV alerts while also moderately decreasing latency to start ephemeral agent.
When the Immy Agent fails to update during a maintenance session, it will now retry up to 3 times in case it failed due to a transient error
You can now assign tags to a computer from its Onboarding form
When we run a script and to establish an ephemeral agent and detect that there are no online agents, we only wait 5 minutes instead of 30 minutes. For integrations like Automate and N-Central and don't support connectivity changed events, a machine would potentially restart so fast the RMM was unaware, therefore we would wait 30 minutes before realizing the machine was actually online.
Removed execute and verify progress bars when action is a task monitor, and changed the "detect" progress text to "monitor".
Added the ability to change a computer's primary user from the overview page.
Improved performance of computer list page when sorting by Date Created
Added -IncludeTags switch parameter to Get-ImmyComputer that includes an array of tags containing the tag id and the tag name
Added a date input to the dashboard page to optionally return actions that were executed on or after the specified date
Added basic health check functionality to all integrations that were missing health checks
Added a test suite for the NCentral integration to run in our build pipeline to help reduce bugs
Made the main scripts table use server-side pagination to decrease the amount of data initially transferred to the page. Global scripts are now showing over 3MB combined.
Added better error messages when we fail to sync users due to permissions issues
Improved and simplified some internal logic related to permissions in our Metascript cmdlets

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with tag acccess levels not saving the limited tenants selected
Fixed an issue with metacript exception handling where any error with the category OperationStopped was being treated as terminating exception

Fixed an issue during identification where the device id of "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" was allowed as a valid GUID. It is not valid, and new devices with this GUID will be assigned a new one.

# 0.54.6

Released 2022-12-27

Fixed an issue with downloading the immy agent installer as an .iso file
Fixed an issue preventing computers from being deleted
Mitigated an issue with N-Central which eventually resulted in N-Central hangs and crashes
Fixed a transient issue related to starting Ephemeral Agents on some N-Central devices the first time

Fixed an issue with saving the SMTP form
Fixed an issue where session logs could repeat "Reboots have been suppressed during business hours" over and over

# 0.54.3

# 0.54.0

Released 2022-11-11

# CW Control Updates

We added support for the breaking changes introduced in CW Control 22.9. We addressed stability issues with Control crashing due to the ImmyBot extension. On the Control integration form, make sure you check off the new options for using the Service Bus for better performance.

# Pending Identification Updates

Agent identification now has logging to help you find root causes for why some agents fail to have scripts run against them. View them in Computers -> Pending Identification -> Show Identification Logs

You can also see the identification logs for successfully identified agents under the Computer -> Agents tab.

We now utilize the serial numbers for devices that come from trusted manufacturers (currently Lenovo, Dell, and HP). If a computer already exists in ImmyBot for a trusted manufacturer, any additional agents with that computer's serial number will skip identification and automatically be associated.

# Improvements

Fixed issue where Intellisense would throw null reference exception when completing variables
Updated CW Control integration to support CW Control 22.9 (extension version 0.3.0)
Added immy subscription information to billing details page
Made subscription portal show within immy frontend instead of a link to chargebee
Updated the default combined maintenance task script to leverage the latest function scripts in Immy. The new script is Get-WindowsRegistryValue -Path "HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\MySoftwareVendor\MySoftware" -Name EnableFeature | Registry-ShouldBe -Value 1
License files are now downloaded before running a configuration task's test script during detection in case the script relies on the presence of the license file
Added a new tenant preference "Exclude from Cross-Tenant Deployments and Schedules". When a tenant is excluded, all cross-tenant deployments and schedules targeting the tenant or its computers will not be applied when full maintenance is ran. This is particularly useful for Co-Managed IT situations that don't don't want your cross-tenant schedules or deployments.
Improved startup time of instances in situations where there was a large number of recently added agents
Added "Change Tenant" in batch actions for the computers table

# 0.53.12

Fixed an issue with the ImmyBot Agent connected/disconnected events not propagating for pc reboots and pending connectivity sessions
Reduced likelyhood of Output CircularBuffer has already over-run requested index error in scripts
Ephemeral Agent reconnection is now prevented upon receiving a 500 status code. This was previously causing agents to stay running indefinitely.
Fixed an issue on the system update page where the new releases dropdown was not stretching the width like the current release dropdown

# 0.53.8

Released 2022-9-22

# Improvements

The "Suppress Reboots During Business Hours" flag no longer relies on offline behavior. If you are suppressing reboots during business hours and you run a session during business hours, then Immy will suppress reboots. Business hours are now checked on every script execution, and the RebootPreference variable passed to scripts will also be updated to Suppress if it was not already set. We did this so that scripts that handle reboots can safely rely on this variable.
The customer list on the Azure page no longer shows the MSP tenant as a selectable option in the Linked Tenant dropdown since the MSP tenant is mapped by default
Refactored how we handle ImmyBot agent connected and disconnected events. Instances that heavily utilize the ImmyBot agent will have significantly improved performance.
The Enable Automatic Onboarding field on the PPKG form is now disabled and shows an alert if the onboarding preference is globally disabled or disabled for the selected tenant.

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with loading the AzureAD module for metascripts. This issue was causing all scripts that relied on AzureAD commands to fail.
Fixed an issue where syncing the connected state of large numbers of ImmyBot agents would prevent other system jobs from being performed
Fixed an issue where configuration tasks for already compliant software were executing at the very end of a maintenance session instead of in the expected order
Fixed an issue where the default upgrade strategy was set to none instead of install over
Fixed a permission issue where non-admins could not refresh the connectivity status of a computer
Fixed an issue with downloading the ImmyAgent installer as an .iso file where the extension was incorrectly set to .ppkg
Fixed an issue where software set to perform an update would incorrectly report compliant when the software did not specify an upgrade strategy and the upgrade was never performed. The action will now fail and report "Upgrade failed: No Upgrade Strategy specified on the software."
Fixed an issue with maintenance action execution ordering. If the currently executing action has dependencies, it will now immediately execute the dependencies instead of waiting until the end of the session.
Fixed an issue with selecting a license on the deployment details page where the selected license was not shown upon refreshing

# 0.53.7

Released 2022-09-14

# Improvements

Increased the timeout of the Ephemeral Agent's Ping RPC method from 1 second to 5 seconds. 1 second was too short and was unnecessarily causing scripts to fail on machines with high network latency.
Added a warning message whenever the Ephemeral Agent's Ping RPC method takes over 1 second to respond to help identify machines with high network latency

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with schedules where updating a schedule from a single tenant to cross tenant would delete the schedule. This was happening due to a bug in a database constraint between schedules and tenants.
Fixed an issue where the connectivity status button on the computer details page was not actually refreshing the agent's connectivity status
Fixed an issue where repairing a software would trigger full maintenance

# 0.53.6

Released 2022-09-12

# Improvements

Added Set-ImmyDeviceId cmdlet to be used during Inventory to keep the UUID of the machine up to date and prevent new computers from getting created when the UUID of the machine has changed due to a feature update.

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where the "Determine Desired Version" phase was running before the "Detect Installed Version" phase. "Detect Installed Version" needs to run first so we can pass the detected version to scripts that may rely on it when determining the desired version.
Fixed an issue where dynamic versions were not properly installing dependent versions

# 0.53.5

Released 2022-09-09

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue from 0.53.4 where some code changes were unintentionally included in the release which caused downloading the PPKG to fail

Updated the ImmyBot Agent to support installing beta versions

# Bug Fixes

Fixed a scripting error that caused Immy to indicate there was no output when there was definitely output

# 0.53.3

Released 2022-08-30

# Software Test Script Changes

We now execute the software test script during the detection stage for software that have updates available.

Before, if a software needed to be upgraded, we would not run the software's test script in detection. We would perform the upgrade and then run the test script afterwards. However, if the test failed, the action would fail without any remediation.

Now, if a software needs to be upgraded, and it has a test script, the test script will run in detection. If the test script fails, then the repair strategy will be performed instead of the upgrade strategy. The test script will still be run after the upgrade as it did before.

# General Improvements

Updated the error text for schedule cron expressions to indicate that a schedule can run at most once per day.
The ImmyBot Agent service sometimes throws an exception about a missing file CliWrap.dll, which causes the agent to bork. When we encounter this exception, we now auto restart the service to resolve the issue.
Improved the session log message "Detection stage failed: Software Action Id is not specified on the provided configuration task action" to include more information to help diagnose the issue. It is usually because the deployment contains out-of-date data and needs to be updated.
Improved the performance of loading the main computer list when sorting by computer name
Test methods containing multiple outputs now return the result of ANDing those outputs together to compute the overall result.
Updated Quick Deploy to allow you to choose a desired state. e.g. "Install, Uninstall, Update If Found, Ignore" or "Enforce, Monitor, Audit"
Added detection of stuck/non-responsive jobs such as the agent identification job, which can initiate a self-restart of backend.
Added reboot preference dropdown to quick deploy and override forms
Moved several action columns on tables to the left side for consistency and best compatibility with mobile views.
Added an option to schedules and adhoc-deplyoments to send detection emails even when all actions are compliant. This is to allow users whose computers are already up to date to still receive a maintenance email.
Updated the script list page and session log component to use the Monaco script editor
Added the CW Automate icon to the main computer list. Clicking the icon opens up the computer in CW Automate.
Added "Date Added" to the computer list and made it sortable
Added a simple "new" tag on the computer list for computers that have been added to ImmyBot within the last 24 hours
Added an 'X' button to easily remove linked tenants from integrations

# Bug Fixes

After a task is created, the Runs Against property is now disabled. Changing this value after it is created can cause issues for deployments that are referencing it.
Fixed an issue with Ephemeral Agent resilient script output logic that would fail to re-connect if the script had never had any output prior to connection loss. (Ex. SonicWall VPN installer script)
Added missing triggered by text on the session details page when the session was triggered by a schedule or automatic onboarding
Fixed a width issue on some dropdown buttons
Fixed an issue with the integration client list re-sorting after you link/unlink a tenant

# 0.53.1 (un-published)

Released 2022-08-18

# Improvements

Added a Trigger Now button to the Azure User Sync preference on the preferences page
Added a description to the PPKG reset windows checkbox - "Will perform a reset of windows with the remove user data option"

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with agent identification where users were seeing the following error - Failed attempt to differentiate existing agent and pending agent: 42883: procedure sp_create_computer_from_agent(integer, uuid, boolean, text, text, text, unknown, boolean) does not exist POSITION: 6
Updated the alert of the person list page to match the available actions
Fixed an issue where the software configuration task edit link was missing

# 0.52.6

Released 2022-06-27

# Improvements

Set the default install script for new software to the "Manual Install Script" and the upgrade strategy to "Install Over" whenever we don't have another specific install script to provide
Set the default software installer type to "Installer File"
Updated the example New-DynamicVersion script
We now show a confirmation modal when choosing the "Wiped" option for resolving an agent identification conflict.
You can now see Cloud Sessions from the main Sessions list!
Added warnings when the ephemeral agent is failing to establish a connection to help users identify causes for failing script execution
Fixed an issue with the detection stage stuck running when it fails to execute scripts in the beginning of the stage
Improved timeline connected/disconnected events. There were edge cases that would show multiple connects/disconnects back to back.
Removed timeline computer online/offline events to avoid confusion. These events were never actually based on a computer coming online or going offline. We simply emitted "online" when an agent connected and happened to be the only online agent. Similarly for "offline" events, we only emitted the event when an agent disconnected and all agents were offline. ImmyBot does not actively check whether a machine is online or offline. It only checks whether it has any connected agents to use. This concept will be further improved upon to help resolve issues with agents incorrectly reporting connected/disconnected.
Removed link to software/task on deployment list since people are clicking it thinking it is the edit deployment link
Moved the software/task selector back above the target selector on the deployment edit page
Removed the media nav item since it's not actually useful

Fixed an issue where the ImmyBot agent update action would not run when the agent was offline
Fixed an issue with the agent updates stage, onboarding stage, and resolution stage not honoring pending connectivity
Fixed an issue where the resume and cancel session buttons were incorrectly showing for postponed sessions
Fixed an issue with CW Control and CW Automate health error messages excluding important details that can help diagnose the problem
Fixed an issue where we were not checking if a configuration task is actually marked as a configuration task. This resulted in tasks getting run when they should not have.

# 0.52.5

Released 2022-06-13

# N-Central Beta Updates

Fixed an issue with exceptions that may occur inside the N-Central device-sync job causing memory to bloat
You can now get registration tokens from the NCentral integration via new PSCmdlet Get-NCentralRegistrationToken

# Other Improvements

Under "Preferences", the description of the User Affinity Sync feature says it will run every 4 hours; this is incorrect. Verbiage was changed to indicate it will run every 24 hours.
On the integration details page, a confirmation modal has been added when clicking the "Bulk create tenants..." button to prepare users that this will cause code execution for linked clients.
Added more improvements to online/offline agent handling during maintenance sessions
Updated the online/offline event receiver for CW Control to return immediately in an effort to close requests faster

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with the maintenance email actions requiring authentication

# 0.52.3

Released 2022-05-27

# Improvements

ImmyAgents no longer need to see a valid board serial number in order to complete registration or rekey. Instead, ImmyAgent may fall back on and rely on an 'ImmyHWID' (Immy hardware id), when a board serial is not available. ImmyHWIDs are derived from CPU, BIOS, MOBO, GPU, and TPM information where available.
Updated maintenance sessions to listen on agent connected/disconnected events instead of computer online/offline events which have faster responses and higher success rates
When a new agent comes into ImmyBot, we now kick off the identification job immediately if it isn't already running in an effort to speed up identification
Added session logs for dependencies indicating what they are for. e.g. Software A depends on Software B → If not installed then install.
The actions in the maintenance email (Reboot Now, Update Now, and Postpone), now link to a form on the ImmyBot instance instead of linking directly to the backend api. The reason for this is because some spam filters will automatically follow links in an email, which has accidentally caused computer reboots. Moving the link to a form allows spam filters to no longer be able to trigger the action automatically.

# Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue causing the computer details page to sometimes not load
Fixed an issue with the ImmyAgent rekey request not being received
Fixed an issue where Get-ImmyComputer was incorrectly reporting offline
Fixed an issue where configuration file parameters were not being downloaded when the configuration task did not have any enabled scripts

Bump Azure IoTHub packages to resolve some connection issues with the ImmyAgent

# 0.52.2

Released 2022-05-25

# Ephemeral Agent and Identification Improvements

ALL scripts now run through the ephemeral agent, even during identification and computer de-dupe logic 🎉
Additional exception information is now visible in Identification Failed tab, and in session output. This furthers insight for users to understand and fix potential reasons why the providers may have failed to run our agent.
Fixed an issue where the date was not being set correctly when adding a AgentIdentificationFailure log, leading the user to think this issue happened at the beginning of time!

# Other Improvements

Added computer batch actions button on the tenants -> tenant details -> computers tab
You can no longer create a schedule that executes within one hour of detection. This is a safety measure to help prevent reboots during business hours
Added a checked to the schedules page for "Execute maintenance immediately after detection" to make it easier for those that do actually want to run execution after detection. When checked, you cannot set the execution time.
The schedule list "Next Run" column now sorts correctly and also shows the browser's local "Next Run" time
Added clarity to session logs when we are checking if an agent is online
Quick deploy actions now use Offline Behavior: Apply on Connect
Auto onboarding sessions now use Offline Behavior: Apply on Connect
Computer list batch actions - Run Maintenance now uses Offline Behavior: Apply on Connect
On the schedule details page, renamed "Target Category" to "Runs Against", and changed the options to "Computers" or "Cloud"

Tags can be added to computers as a batch action on the computer list page.

Tags can also be added to a computer on the details page.

Tags can be deployed as a cross-tenant target scope.

Tags can also be deployed as a single-tenant target scope.

Tags can be added to an ImmyBot installer to automatically set tags for new computers

# Exclude Computer From Maintenance

You can now specify that a computer be excluded from maintenance. Excluded computers will not be allowed to run any type of maintenance session.

Settings -> Preferences -> Company Preferences -> Computers Excluded From Maintenance

Tenants -> Select a tenant -> Preferences tab -> Computers Excluded From Maintenance

# Immy Chat Integration

Added in 0.51.5

We added LiveChat to Immy to make it easier for you to get support

# Session Script Execution Improvements

Before executing a script on a device, we now check if it is online. If it is not online, we verify whether any of its agents are incorrectly reporting online and refresh the status appropriately. If it is still not online, we will wait up to 30 minutes for it come back online. If it is still not online, then we will mark the session as Pending Connectivity (only for Apply On Connect) or cancel the session due to the computer being offline.

# Other Improvements

On Immy startup, we now sync the online/offline state of all ImmyBot agents
Added an hourly job to pull the latest online/offline state of all ImmyBot agents

The "Download ImmyBot Agent Installer" dropdown will now be disabled if the integration is unhealthy or disabled.

# Other Improvements

Schedules can no longer be created with cron expressions using a * , - or / in the minute or hour position to help prevent to frequent scheduling.
Important: Schedules that are currently using a * , - or / in the minute or hour position will be automatically disabled in this version.
Software items in emails show "Up to Date" after successfully updating instead of "Update Available" which causes confusion whether the software has actually updated
Quick Assign and Assign actions are no longer disabled when the computer is already running a maintenance session
Added OS version after the OS name in the computer details overview info
MSP non-admins can now see the recommended deployments on the list page to know that they exist
Added detected version to items in the software tab
Removed the integration priority table and details since they are no longer applicable
When a maintenance session is manually resumed, the name of the user that resumed it now shows up in the logs. Or if it was resumed from an email, then it will indicate that a user clicked the "Update Now" button in the email.
Added field for maintenance task notes.

# Bug Fixes

# Onboarding Deployments

The Onboarding target type has been moved to a separate checkbox so that you can limit deployments to onboarding only AND use the target type filters.

# ImmyAgent Improvements

Updated internal infrastructure to utilize our new extended verification code-signing certificate (opens new window).

We currently sign:

ImmyAgent executable & MSI/EXE/PPKG Installers
Ephemeral Agent executable
Static PoSH run on computers

In addition to being more secure, this ensures our software is no-longer flagged by SmartScreen.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Customers utilizing software such as ThreatLocker MUST ensure our new certificate is whitelisted, as our new EV cert required "LLC" to be present on our CN and O.

# Bug Fixes

Improved exception handling during maintenance sessions
Fixed an issue with re-running cloud scripts from a session log where it would throw an exception
Fixed some performance issues and improved caching of function scripts

# 0.50.7

Released 2022-02-25

# Maintenance Task Serial Execution

A maintenance task now has the option to "Execute Serially".

When checked, this maintenance task is guaranteed to only have one instance active at a time.

e.g. If three maintenance sessions have an action for a maintenance task that executes serially, then one session will execute the maintenance task while the other two wait for it to complete. Once the first completes, the second will execute. Once the second completes, the third will execute.

This is useful for maintenance tasks that rely on the state of subsequent executions.

# Other Improvements

Added a Status and Types column to the CW Manage client list on the integration details page so you can easily filter your list to clients you want to create tenants for. Also made the Linked Tenants column filterable to "Linked" or "Not linked". The Bulk create tenants for unassigned clients is now Bulk create tenants for filtered unassigned clients and will only bulk create tenants for those visible rows matching the table filters.

# 0.49.0

Released 2022-01-11

# Improved Performance

In this release, codenamed "Cheetah" we achieved a 20x improvement in script execution performance through the use of WebSockets, Named Pipes, and removing code that is no longer necessary since the introduction of the Ephemeral Agent.

We also made restarting machines faster by using the new event driven Wait-ImmyComputer cmdlet when waiting for computers to reconnect after a reboot.

# Apply on Connect

# Problem to solve

Computers that are offline never receive maintenance. These computers need a way to update when they miss their maintenance window.

# Solution

You can now specify the offline behavior for computers on schedules and ad-hoc deployments.

When offline behavior is set to Apply On Connect, a session will get marked as when the device is offline. When the device comes online, the session will resume.

Since devices can come online at anytime, the option to Suppress Reboots During Business Hours is checked by default.

If a device is offline before the detection stage, then it will run the detection stage when it comes online.

If a device is offline before the execution stage, then it will only run the execution stage when it comes online. It will not re-run detection.

Maintenance emails are only sent out once regardless if the device goes offline.

# Timeline

On the computer details overview tab, there is now a section called Timeline that shows particular events that have occurred for the computer.

The events we are currently showing are:

Agent disconnected
Agent connected
Maintenance action started (only shows if the action required execution)
Maintenance action completed (only shows if the action required execution)

More events will be added in the future.

# Other Improvements

Improved performance of determining desired state of deployments during maintenance
Improved performance of some update queries
Added a new metascript cmdlet Wait-ImmyComputer that returns as soon as a computer has connectivity

# 0.47.8

Released 2021-11-17

# Features

# Ephemeral Agent EXE

The ephemeral agent now executes as an .exe instead of a PowerShell script.
This allows us to use a WebSocket instead of polling, which improves performance and resiliency as we can immediately detect disconnections.
Decreased initial connection time by attempting to connect using all RMMs simultaneously instead of in sequence.
Substantially improved logging to help troubleshoot script execution issues

Note: You may have to exclude your instance's hostname in the firewall from SSL Inspection policies! SSL Inspection may interfere with the WebSocket connection from this new agent!

Note: You may also need to adjust your security software to allow the EXE to execute. We recommend adding an exclusion for the Immense Networks code signing certificate as it will be used to sign all ImmyBot PowerShell scripts and Executables.

The subject of the certificate is:

CN=Immense Networks, O=Immense Networks, L=Baton Rouge, S=Louisiana, C=US

# Improvements

Inventory scripts now run in parallel
ImmyBot will always overwrite license files to prevent issues with software not activating because the previous license file is still in the ImmyBot download folder.
The script terminal on the computer details page is no longer cleared when swapping between tabs.
Updated the instance disabled text to specify that only an admin user can re-enable immy

# Bug Fixes

The EXE ephemeral agent addresses intermittent ScriptTimeout exceptions that would occur for a variety of reasons
Implemented a "Script Execution Circuit Breaker" per computer to prevent RMM overload when retrying ephemeral connections (This can happen when security software blocks execution or firewalls prevent outbound connections)
Fixed several issues around script error handling. Line numbers now display correctly. Exceptions that occur before running a script are now caught and displayed properly.
Fixed an issue where inventory output with a value of null was being treated as successful and overwriting good results
Fixed a bug with session logs showing null references when a script was cancelled or timed out
Fixed a bug with quick deploy where the deployment resolution stage was unnecessarily reaching out to the computer to retrieve its software
Fixed a bug during maintenance sessions, Field at index '1' does not exist..., where retrieving the list of installed chocolatey software would fail
Resolved a potential issue around re-acquiring ephemeral agent sessions under concurrent script execution scenarios
Fixed a bug when re-authenticating to ImmyBot where you wouldn't be redirected to the page you were previously on due to the URL not including query parameters

# 0.47.0

Released 2021-10-28

# Maintenance Execution Order

You can now specify the order in which maintenance items are executed by navigating to "/deployments/ordering" or by clicking the "Ordering" link in the side nav bar under "Deployments".

Fixed a bug with running Get-AgentInstallScript where it would return the error Tenant # is not linked to a client for the specified provider
Fixed a bug saving the onboarding form where we were not disabling the onboarding save buttons while the page was still loading. Attempting to to save before the page was loaded was causing an error to be thrown
Fixed a bug where the branding list was showing brandings as "Expired" when they actually weren't
Fixed a bug where updating brandings with no selected tenant would cause the branding to get deleted instead
Fixed a bug where using the "Re-inventory" button on the computer details page would often time out and show an error

Released 2021-09-14

# Ephemeral Agent Script Execution

ImmyBot now uses "Ephemeral Agents" for script execution.

This new method will normalize the time it takes to run scripts across all RMM Providers. The initial payload to start the ephemeral agent will be sent through the RMM, but then all subsequent scripts will communicate directly with the ephemeral agent.

An Ephemeral Agent is a lightweight PowerShell script that establishes a direct connection with the ImmyBot backend via Polling or SSE (Server-Sent Events) to receive script payloads to execute. Script output is then sent through an Azure Service Bus for high throughput handling. The ImmyBot backend manages the lifetime of ephemeral agents and is able to re-use them efficiently.

# Script Path Preference

It is now easier to whitelist ImmyBot in your Antivirus. The Ephemeral Agent will use a script path containing a hash unique to your instance that you can rekey yourself.

# Default Software Scripts

You can now specify install, uninstall, post-install, post-uninstall, upgrade, and test scripts directly on the software.

This reduces duplication for software where the versions use the same exact scripts while also making software easier to manage.

Considerations

If the software has a script and the desired version has a script, then the script on the version takes precedence. (e.g. the version's install script will be used instead of the software's install script if both are present)
If the version does not have a script, then we will attempt to use the one on the software if the script is present.

# Custom Download Script

Added a configuration task tag to configuration task maintenance actions on the session details page

# 0.44.0

Released 2021-06-28

# Quick Deploy

Deploying software for a specific computer is now easier. Located at the top of the Software tab on the computer details page. Tell your techs to use this form if they need to deploy software to a specific computer.

After selecting a software / maintenance task that you want to deploy, a session will be kicked off to determine if the computer has any applicable deployments. If a deployment is found, then you'll be presented actions for that deployment.

If a deployment is not found, then you are asked if you would like to create one.

If the selected item requires configuration task parameter values or a license, then you still need to create the deployment from the traditional deployment page. We plan on expanding on this to allow supplying a license and parameters directly on this form.

# Computer List Search Improvements

Searching for computers is now much faster after some internal refactoring of how the data was stored. We removed the need to select a filter so you can now search by any of the available fields specified in the placeholder.

The Immy Agent now gets updated during full maintenance sessions. You can also manually trigger an update by going to the computer's details page and under the Agents tab.

# Assignment Override

As part of a refactor of the computer software tab, we added the ability to override assignments. This is useful when resolving one off computers that do not need to be part of a larger assignment.

# Getting Started Wizard

A new 'Getting Started' feature is available, which guides the user through first-time ImmyBot setup and installation of the ImmyAgent on a device using PPKG. You can access this feature by clicking the "show Getting Started Wizard" link under your user email dropdown in the top right.

# Recommended Deployments

A recommended deployment is a global deployment that is accessible to all ImmyBot users. Recommended deployments represent common scenarios that most companies use. You can approve / dismiss recommended deployments. Approving a deployment will allow it to be considered as a valid deployment when running maintenance. Dismissing a deployment will disallow it from being considered during maintenance.

When a new recommended deployment is added, you will receive a notification, "You have new recommended deployments". Clicking this link will prompt you to approve / disapprove the deployment.

You can manage the approval of all recommended deployments from the main Deployment List page by clicking the "View Recommended Deployments" button at the top.

ImmyAgent gracefully shuts down quickly preventing connection errors on service restart because the previous process is still running
Better online/offline tracking: ImmyAgent now sends messages to the backend to indicate when it connects and disconnects. The prevents issues where a restart may not be noticed on machines that reboot quickly because the IoTHub filters out connection events that happen quickly.
When joining the domain from the Onboarding screen, the logs indicate what domain controller is being used to fetch the offline domain join token
When scripts are running in the Metascript context, we say execution is happening in the ImmyBot Backend instead of 'Server' as it could be confused with a server managed by ImmyBot

Fixed an issue that was preventing successful installs of ninite and chocolatey software

# 0.42.0

# Tenant Details Page

Added a tenant details page similar to the computer details page. The tenant list page link has been moved out from Settings -> Tenants to the top level in the navbar.

Maintenance sessions run directly against a tenant can be viewed in the Sessions tab.
Assigned Tenant Maintenance Tasks can be viewed in the Tasks tab.
The Terminal tab is auto scoped to run meta scripts for a particular tenant.
The Mappings tab allows you to link/un-link a tenant from RMM Providers.
The edit tab allows you to change the name of the tenant.

# Software Providers

# What is a Software Provider?

A Software Provider tells ImmyBot how to install/uninstall a software. Currently, Local, Global, Chocolatey and Ninite are supported as providers. You can assign the available providers to a software on the software's edit page. A local/global software will inherently be a Local/Global Provider if there are software versions present.

The provider that is used during a maintenance session can be specified on the deployment. For example, if the Chocolatey provider is added on a software and is selected on a deployment, then Immy will always attempt to install/uninstall the software through Chocolatey.

If a specific provider is not selected, then the software will be installed/uninstalled using the following logic:

If the deployment is set to install the latest version or update if found, then the provider that contains the latest software version will be used.
- e.g. If chocolatey has a newer software version then global, then chocolatey will be used.
For any other desired state, the local/global provider will be used (normal behavior).

If the Ninite integration is enabled and Ninite is set as an alternate provider, then Ninite will take priority over Local/Global and Chocolatey.

# Detection Outdated

Added a flag to computers to indicate that a deployment for the computer has been updated and that detection should be re-run to ensure the computer is up to date.

# Computer Software Page Updates

Added more tabs to filter the computer's software list

# Unassignable

The unassignable tab lists all software that exist on the computer but does not exist in ImmyBot as managed Software.

# Assignable

The assignable tab now has two potential actions: Quick Assign and Assign. Quick Assign will immediately create a deployment targeting the primary person (if present) or the computer. A detection only session will also start immediately to determine the current state of the software. Assign will open the New Deployment Page and allow you to create a new assignment for the software. Quick assign is currently only available for software that do not have a configuration task or a license.

# Assigned

The assigned tab now provides 3 potential actions: Action to take (Install, Update, Enforce, etc), Re-run detection (refresh icon), and Manage (edit deployment)"

# Improvements and Bug Fixes

# 0.41.6

Released 2021-03-30

# Configuration Tasks

Added better support for Software Configuration Tasks by allowing a maintenance task to be checked off as a Configuration Task.

Configuration Tasks are used to provide parameters to software install scripts and/or provide additional configuration after the software is installed. Checking this box allows you to select this Maintenance Task from the Configuration Task section of the 'Edit Software' page. Configuration Tasks are not select-able on the 'Edit Deployment' Page to prevent accidental deployment without the associated software.

The Configuration Task selector on the Software Edit Page now only show maintenance tasks that have Configuration Task checked.

# Software Icons

QOL feature where we added the ability to upload icons to software that can be displayed in software lists.

We will incrementally start adding icons to Global Software and displaying the icons on various pages where software are shown, such as the Dashboard and Maintenance Session Details pages.

# Media

ImmyBot now officially supports uploading media that can be used in Maintenance Tasks as file parameters. Existing media can now be selected from the media library for re-use on multiple maintenance tasks.

# Detection Only Maintenance Sessions

Detection only maintenance sessions are replacing the "Preview" feature where we determine what needs to be done for a computer to be compliant without actually enforcing compliance. The benefit over the old "preview" is that detection only maintenance sessions will persist to the database.

A detection only session will gather all deployments for a computer, and if the computer is online, it will then run detection to determine compliance. If the computer is offline, it will only determine what the desired state is.

# Additional computer software list filtering

Added additional filtering to the computer's software list that allows you to filter by managed software, inventoried software, or both. Also, a toggle to show "Hidden Items" was added to show or hide system component inventoried software.

# Max session indicator

Updated the Sessions List page headers to show Created Sessions and the max number of running sessions Immy can run concurrently.

# Bug fixes and other improvements

Released 2021-03-08

# Azure Improvements

----Added the ability to create tenants from your Azure Customers from the Azure page. This is convenient for those only using the ImmyBot Agent, and want to quickly create tenants from their Azure Customers. We also added the Azure Customer Domain to the table since this may be valuable to see.

# Chocolatey Improvements

Our managed server that proxies and caches Chocolatey requests can at times be unreliable. Also, this server is not geographically replicated so it is not the best solution for those using ImmyBot outside of the US. We added logic that automatically falls back to using Chocolatey directly whenever our managed server is responding poorly. We also improved our caching which resulted in better response times and fewer requests sent to Chocolatey.

# Script Session Logs Improvements

Updated the styling of script session logs. Clicking "Open Debugger" now copies the script output to the terminal.

# Schedule Improvements

The default detection time for new schedules has been changed to 2PM. The default execution time for new schedules has been changed to 10PM. Extra details were added to detection and execution time descriptions on new schedule form.

# Deployment Improvements

Deployment options more clearly indicate that they will only affect sessions created on the deployment page and will not be saved with the deployment itself.

# Improved Custom Detection Script logic

Custom Detection Scripts can now return any output as long as the last word is a valid semantic version.

# Example

write-output "The version found is 1.0.0" ## translates to a detected version of 1.0.0
write-output "Version:`n`n1.0.0" ## translates to a detected version of 1.0.0

# Bug Fixes

Enabled the metascript execution context for custom detection scripts
Removed the "all scripts are disabled for task" alert on the deployment form for configuration tasks
Fixed a bug on the deployment form where it would not let you save if you changed the selected maintenance item from one software to another
Fixed a bug on the deployment form where it would not keep your selected desired state when changing the selected maintenance item from one software to another
Fixed a bug preventing the logout button from working

# 0.40.0

Released 2021-02-24

# Dashboard Page

Added a new page that can provide you the latest actions for software and maintenance tasks that were run against a group of computers. The page is intended to help produce audits and show whether or not computers are compliant. This page is a work in progress and will be iterated on over the next few weeks.

# How to use it

Select a target scope for the computers you are interested in.
Select one or more software or maintenance tasks
The table will then show you a green check, a red x, or nothing to indicate the compliance of the selected item for that computer
- A green check indicates that the latest action for the item is compliant.
- A red x indicates that the latest action for the item is not compliant.
- Nothing indicates that ImmyBot has not run an action against the computer for the item.

You can filter the data for each software or maintenance task added by clicking the filter button next to the item's name.
You can remove an item from the table by clicking the red X button next to the item's name.

Click the xlsx button located at the top-right corner of the table to export the data in the table.

The excel export will contain an "Overview" worksheet, that provides you the compliancy of the selected software and tasks for each computer.

For each software and task you have in the table, an additional worksheet will be added that provides you information about the latest action taken.

# Restart ImmyBot

Added a Restart ImmyBot button to the System Status Page. The System Status Page has been moved to the top of the navbar.

Note: Only MSP Admin users can see this page.

# Get-RmmInstallScript Metascript

Exposed new metascript Get-RmmInstallSCript -RmmLinkId <int> that will return a script block containing the powershell install script for the specified rmm link. This is was added to provide an quick way to update the ImmyBot Agent on computers. Long term, we will add auto update logic to the ImmyBot Agents so we don't have to do this.

# Example usage

$RmmInfo = Get-RmmInfo -ProviderType ImmybotAgent
$ScriptBlock = Get-RmmInstallScript -RmmLinkId $RmmInfo.RmmLinkId
Invoke-ImmyCommand $ScriptBlock

# Improved Software Detection

We expanded the "Software Table" detection method to have three search modes: Contains, Regex, and Traditional.

We added a lookup table that can search the known software on your computers to help create better detection methods.

The Contains search mode allows you to target software using a contains search.

The Regex search mode allows to target software using regular expressions.

The Traditional search mode is the old detection style used by ImmyBot. This method is essentially the same as Regex, but replaces occurrences of _ with ._

# Software Lookup Table

The table will show software already installed on your computers that matches the detection method you provide.

We provide the software name, version, upgrade code (if present), and how many computers in your instance have it installed.

# Software Repair

Added a software repair option to the Software Details Page

On a computer's software tab, you can now click a repair button that will perform the specified repair logic.
