Install Command Cheat Sheet

Examples of how to use Scappman install commands with your custom applications

<INSTALLERFILE> does not need to be changed, Scappman will automatically swap this with the name of the primary installer file you upload when creating your custom app

These are all examples. Vendors install arguments for silent install may vary. Please refer to the vendors documentation

Scappman automatically appends the required command-line arguments for silent install, no reboot and logging.
