Command Parameters

Each installation command, whether built-in or plug-in provided, has a unique set of parameters. The parameters are often very similar to, although not identical, to the values entered in the IDE while the command editing window is open.

To discover the exact parameters of any command

1. In the IDE, add the command to your script. Use meaningful values while completing the fields. This will help you recognize parameter ordering.
2. Copy the command to the clipboard. Open Notepad, and paste the command from the clipboard. The command will paste as plain text.
3. Observe the text. The values following the GUID are the command parameters. Each line after the GUID represents a single command parameter.
4. You will recognize how parameter fields are ordered via the values you entered in step 1 above.
5. Add the command to your script programmatically using all parameters discovered in this way.

 Notes

• If there are empty lines among command parameters, it indicates those fields are reserved. Simply duplicate the exact behavior in your automation projects
• If there are no lines after the GUID, it indicates the command has no parameters
• See the automation example projects for more information
