how to get regapp property list using fixlet debugger

1

Hi,

i am using fixlet debugger to use (names of it) of REGAPPS this displays list of apps on the server and (names of it, versions of it) of regapps this displays app name and its corresponding versions, how to get list of other properties of regapps? other than Name, version etc?

Thanks,
AR

You can also pull values from the version blocks from the regapps

(names of it, versions of it, values "FileDescription" of version blocks of it) of regapps

For the life of me I canā€™t recall where I found out there was a FileDescription but Iā€™ll keep digging. Some info that might help https://developer.bigfix.com/relevance/reference/file-version-block.html

Hi @SLB,

Thank you, i tried (structures of it) of SMBIOS and got result as below with available properties, not sure if we have anything like this for regapps

Current Selection Evaluates To:

Error: Expression evaluates to an unrepresentable object of type ā€œsmbios structureā€. Available properties are:

hexadecimals of : string
integer values of : smbios value
integers of : integer
length of : integer
name of : string
string values of : smbios value
strings of : string
type of : integer
values of : smbios value
values of : smbios value

There is an inspector search that you may find of use. https://developer.bigfix.com/relevance/search/?query=regapp&platform=windows

There is also this that gives additional info about the regapp inspector (this is probably where I found out about the FileDescription approach) . https://support.bigfix.com/cgi-bin/inspectorsearch/single_inspector.cgi?cpx=c&keyphrase=regapp+%26lt%3Bstring%26gt%3B&type=application&win=&client=1

You can also introspect properties in the fixlet debugger, eg for your SMBIOS example

Hi @SLB,

Yes, SMBIOS is listing all properties and not regapps, does regapps has only 4 properties? as i could find only 3, not sure how to find all other properties, and [regapps] is not giving much detail or examples

Name
Description
Version
Size

Regapps returns an ā€˜applicationā€™ type, so check for properties of type ā€œapplicationā€
