| 3. Configure the agent using PowerShell (run as Administrator): | ||
| ```powershell | ||
| New-Item -Path "HKLM:\Software\Policies\Smallstep" | ||
| Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\Policies\Smallstep" -Name "TeamSlug" -Value "<team-id>" | ||
| Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\Policies\Smallstep" -Name "Certificate" -Value "capi:store-location=machine;store=My;issuer=Smallstep (<team-id>) Agents Intermediate CA;cn=step-agent-bootstrap" | ||
| ``` | ||
| Replace `<team-id>` with your Team ID from the Smallstep UI (found in [Settings → Team](https://smallstep.com/app/?next=/settings/team)). | ||
| If your team was created before October 2024, your issuer CA may have a common name without the team slug ("Smallstep Agents Intermediate CA"). Check your [Authority list](https://smallstep.com/app/?next=/cm/authorities) to confirm. |

This isn't going to be applicable for cases where an MDM is not being used to issue a provisional enrollment certificate. Instead, this should likely focus on self-enrollment and API-based enrollment. See: https://www.notion.so/smallstep/API-based-Enrollment-Windows-and-Linux-25cd17a9124980bfa220eeec08ebb80b
