How to deploy the Tactiq extension across your organization (for admins)

Learn how IT and Workspace admins can install the Tactiq extension for their users in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.

Written by Amelia Lim

Before you start

This article is for IT administrators who want to install Tactiq for their users instead of asking each person to install it themselves. If you are installing Tactiq for yourself, see How to install the Tactiq extension.

You will need:

  • Administrator access to the Google Admin console or Microsoft Intune.

  • Chrome browser management or device management turned on for the users you want to deploy to.

Tactiq extension IDs

Use these IDs when adding Tactiq to a policy.

  • Google Chrome: fggkaccpbmombhnjkjokndojfgagejfb

  • Microsoft Edge: ldihbakgcndcoojkibjniljbadkanaic

Deploy Tactiq in Chrome using the Google Admin console

  1. Sign in to the Google Admin console with an administrator account.

  2. Go to Devices > Chrome > Apps & extensions > Users & browsers. If you use Chrome Enterprise Core, go to Chrome browser > Apps & extensions > Users & browsers instead.

  3. On the left, select the organizational unit or group you want to deploy to. Leave the top-level unit selected to deploy to everyone.

  4. Hover over the + button in the bottom-right corner and select Add Chrome app or extension by ID.

  5. Paste the Chrome extension ID fggkaccpbmombhnjkjokndojfgagejfb and select Save.

  6. Select Tactiq in the list. In the panel that opens, set Installation policy to Force install, or Force install + pin to also pin Tactiq to the browser toolbar.

  7. Select Save.

Check Chrome Web Store access

If your users see the message "We are sorry, but you do not have access to this service", Chrome Web Store access is turned off for their organizational unit. See this article for how to turn it back on.

Extensions you set to Force install are installed even when the Chrome Web Store is turned off, so this mainly affects users installing Tactiq themselves.

Deploy Tactiq in Microsoft Edge using Intune

  1. Open the Microsoft Intune admin center.

  2. Go to Devices > Configuration and select Create > New policy.

  3. Set Platform to Windows 10 and later or macOS, set Profile type to Settings catalog, then select Create.

  4. Give the policy a name, such as Edge - Tactiq extension, then select Next.

  5. Select Add settings, search for Edge, and expand Microsoft Edge > Extensions.

  6. Select Control which extensions are installed silently.

  7. Add this value: ldihbakgcndcoojkibjniljbadkanaic;https://edge.microsoft.com/extensionwebstorebase/v1/crx

  8. Assign the policy to your device or user groups, then save.

What your users still need to do

Deploying the extension does not create Tactiq accounts. After the extension appears in their browser, each user needs to:

  1. Open Tactiq and sign in with their work account.

  2. Complete the short setup screen, including selecting the meeting platforms they use and granting any additional access Tactiq asks for.

Verify the deployment

  1. On a device, open chrome://extensions or edge://extensions.

  2. Confirm Tactiq appears and is marked as installed by your administrator.

  3. Open chrome://policy or edge://policy and confirm the force-install policy has been received. Restart the browser if it has not.
