Action paremeter in msi arguments

Content Authoring

I have fixlet which basically deploys a piece of software (pretty straight forward and simple). I want to update the fixlet so it can be used by other groups but allow them to enter the argument values via pop ups. The msi “arguments” will be different per dept.

The example here is letting the user input value1/2/3/…
msiexec /i application.msi arg=“value1” arg2=“value2” arg3=“value3” /qn

my action snippet is:

wait “{pathname of system folder & “\msiexec.exe”}” /i “{(pathname of client folder of current site) & “__Download\application.msi”}” arg1=“value1” arg2=“value2” arg3=“value3” /q

Action parameter query is what you’re looking for.

You can use that to prompt for as many arguments as your heart desires and you can then use relevance substitution to place the arguments at the end of your msi command
