Download Agents Directly from the Admin Portal

Deploying an on-premises agent used to mean tracking down the right binary, matching it to your platform, and hoping the file arrived intact. That workflow is now a single click away from where you already manage your agents.

The Agents tab in Admin → Connectors → Active Directory now includes a Download Agent button. Select it, and a dialog shows every available binary — organized by platform and architecture — along with the current release version.

Every Platform, One Place

The download dialog covers every supported combination:

  • Windows — x64 and ARM64
  • Linux — x64 and ARM64

Each option is a direct download link. No separate downloads page, no hunting through release archives, no guessing which file matches your server.

Verify Before You Deploy

Every binary is published with a SHA-256 hash. The download dialog lets you expand a Verify integrity section for each platform, revealing the hash and a one-click Copy button.

After transferring the binary to your target host, compare the hash to confirm the file was not modified in transit. This is especially important when the binary passes through a jump host, shared drive, or file transfer tool before reaching the final server.

Streamlined Agent Rollouts

The download dialog pairs naturally with the enrollment flow you already use:

  1. Open the Agents tab and select Download Agent to grab the binary for your target platform
  2. Transfer the binary to the destination host
  3. Generate an enrollment token from the same Agents tab
  4. Run the enrollment command on the host

Both the download and the enrollment token originate from the same page, so there is no context-switching between documentation, release portals, and the GrantFlow admin console.

Keeping Agents Up to Date

When a new agent version is available, the download dialog automatically reflects the latest release. Agent cards and the detail panel also display an Update available badge so you can tell at a glance which agents are running an older version. To update an existing agent, download the new binary, stop the service, replace the file, and restart — your configuration and certificates carry over.
