SSA action verb options

We’re working on migrating content over to SSA where we get all the pretty markup & MIMEFields to allow for a better user experience.

To get the “Install” verb to show up on a fixlet/baseline the following MIMEFields seem to be used:

		<MIMEField>
			<Name>x-fixlet-taskType</Name>
			<Value>install</Value>
		</MIMEField>
		<MIMEField>
			<Name>x-fixlet-swdDeployCategory</Name>
			<Value>Install</Value>
		</MIMEField>

Meanwhile to get the “Remove” verb to show up on a fixlet/baseline the following MIMEFields seem to be used:

  <MIMEField>
  	<Name>x-fixlet-taskType</Name>
  	<Value>uninstall</Value>
  </MIMEField>
  <MIMEField>
  	<Name>x-fixlet-swdDeployCategory</Name>
  	<Value>Uninstall</Value>
  </MIMEField>

What I’m wondering is what value does a “Run” or generic action style verb need in the MIMEFields? The thought is when offering a Task style fixlet (such as Group Policy update, Force client refresh, etc) the Install/Remove verbs don’t make sense & something like a run/execute/get verb would.
I was less than successful at finding these particular x-fixlet tags in the documentation.

The arrow indicates the button with an action verb that I reference above:

So we figured out how to get “Get” back as the button.
Exclude those two mimefield tags from the .bes file & the default action verb will become “Get”

Thought I’d share if someone else comes across this later :slight_smile:
