Installing Box Tools via Intune Application

Hello! I am trying to install Box Tools via Intune using a Win32 application package. I am unable to get this operating and I am having an issue with the configuration for the detection portion of the Win32 application. I tried using the registry and a custom PowerShell script that I created, but so far Box Tools is not installing on my test machines. I was able to do a LoB application for Box Drive as it a .MSI file, but seeing as Box Tools is an .exe file, I need to utilize the Win32 version within Intune. Does anyone have any experience implementing this? I am not looking for any solutions outside of Intune. Thank you in advance for your help!

    Very reassuring to find months old posts with no answers.

    Get the Admin installer and package it into into a .intunewin file and upload as win32app

    https://e3.boxcdn.net/box-installers/boxedit/win/currentrelease/BoxToolsInstaller-AdminInstall.msi 

     

    Install command:
    msiexec /i "BoxToolsInstaller-AdminInstall.msi" /qn /norestart

    Uninstall command:
    msiexec /x "BoxToolsInstaller-AdminInstall.msi" /qn /norestart

     

     

    For detection I just did a script:

    $AppName = "Box Tools"
    $App = (get-package -name $AppName -erroraction silentlycontinue)

    ## Version check:
    # This variable should be updated to match the build being deployed.
    $minver = [Version]"4.29.0.1189"
    $AppVer = [Version]$App.Version

    if ($App){
        write-host "$AppName Installed"
        if ($AppVer -lt $minver) {
            ## Old version
            exit 1618;
        } else {
            ## Version is up to date
            exit 0;
        }

    } else {
        ## App Not Found
        exit 1618;
    }
