High-level overview of the Remote Assist for HoloLens 2 solution

The Dynamics 365 Remote Assist for HoloLens 2 solution will utilise existing NHSmail Azure capabilities, including Azure AD (AAD) and a standardised NHSmail baseline will be set globally across the NHSmail Intune instance. This refers to a set of standardised apps, settings and policies configured and deployed for each technology platform. Please visit the Intune guidance (article coming soon) for more information.

HoloLens 2 devices are enrolled in Intune and Autopilot on the central tenant, with relevant EM&S Intune licencing (EM&S E3, EM&S E5 or Azure AD Premium P2) (article coming soon) and Dynamics 365 Remote Assist User Licencing to be assigned accordingly. Windows Autopilot is a collection of technologies used to set up and pre-configure new HoloLens 2 devices, getting them ready for productive use. Autopilot can also be used to reset, repurpose and recover devices. This solution results in little to no infrastructure management, with a process that is easy and simple.

When enrolled, users will be able to login to Dynamics 365 Remote Assist app with their NHSmail credentials. The high-level design is illustrated in the diagram below.
