Sunsetted installation method

Not all settings can be covered through MSI parameters. Instead, we recommend following our Roll-Out guide..

General

It is possible install Cryptshare for Outlook using MSI parameters. This allows you to pre-configure the Cryptshare Server URL, proxy settings, and user-specific data. Similar to the Config Creator, the user-specific data can be automatically retrieved by the add-in if you set the relevant fields to an asterisk (*).

Available parameters

Parameters are passed in the following format: Key="subkey1=value;subkey2=value;..."

Key	Sub key	Data type	Exemplary value	Additional notes
account_1	smtp	String	*
	url	String	https://cryptshare.example.com
	firstname	String	*
	lastname	String	*
	tel	String	*
	editable	bool[4]	false,true,true,true	Controls whether the following settings are user-editable: url, firstname, lastname, tel
proxy	type	[none, system, defined]	system
	url	String		Only relevant for type=defined proxy type
	port	Number		Only relevant for type=defined proxy type
	editable	bool[3]	false,false,false	Controls whether the following settings are user-editable: type, url, port

Example

An exemplary installation may look as follows:

msiexec /i "Cryptshare for Outlook v2.12.0.1132.msi" /q account_1="smtp=*;url=https://cryptshare.example.com;firstname=*;lastname=*;tel=*;editable=false,true,true,true" proxy="type=system;editable=false,false,false"

This command would install Cryptshare for Outlook v2.12 with a non-editable server URL set to https://cryptshare.example.com. The first and last name, as well as the phone number of the user, are user-editable and inferred upon the first launch of the add-in. Additionally, the system proxy is permanently pre-set .
