For Admins

Deploying plugins company-wide can be a grueling task. We're doing our best to simplify the process. This is why our installer now supports installation time parameters. You can set them up during your deployment process or with a simple BAT file created in the same folder as the installer. Here is an example BAT content:

ToolBox.exe /verysilent /ALLUSERS /license=<--YOUR LICENSE KEY--> /revittab=<--YOUR COMPANY ACRONYM--> /revitpanel=<--A PANEL NAME--> /dokkid=<--CUSTOM DOKK ID--> /COMPONENTS="Revit\2021,Revit\2022,Revit\2023,Revit\2024,Radar"
  • we've switched to inno setup for our distributions

  • Call the installer executable (usually Toolbox.exe)

  • You can call it with /verysilient for no ui or /silent for a minimal ui

  • parameters start with "/" and are separated by space
