Example of action sets and actions of a managed package

In our example, the managed package for Microsoft 365 Apps - Business Retail Current Channel (x64) has three action sets: Install, Launch and Uninstall.

The Install action set has three actions:

‘Install uploaded directory’ - downloads a zip file which contains setup.exe and all ODT configuration files.
‘Launch setup’ - launches setup.exe with the /configure “O365BusinessRetail-Current-en-us-x64.xml switch. Which then downloads the binaries needed to install Microsoft 365 Apps, from the Microsoft CDN network. Similar to how a web downloader setup works.
‘Cleanup temp folder’ - cleans up, after the installation has ended.
