Sidecar MSI - Intune silent deployment

[CashewPerrin]

Sidecar version: 1.5.2-1

As of the last version, the Graylog Sidecar no longer seems to come in .exe format.

No problem, as MSI’s are easier to manage on Intune. However, there seems to be no documentation on how to pass arguments to the MSI as we previously did with the .exe.

Our arguments for the .exe were as follows:

/S -SERVERURL=[api url] -APITOKEN=[api token] -TAGS=["intune","windows"]

How should we adapt this for a silent MSI install? The /? page on the installer is rather useless.

The Sidecar is still available as EXE as well as MSI Package:

• https://github.com/Graylog2/collector-sidecar/releases/download/1.5.2/graylog_sidecar_installer_1.5.2-1.exe
• https://github.com/Graylog2/collector-sidecar/releases/download/1.5.2/graylog-sidecar-1.5.2-1.msi

The MSI package does not support installation arguments but installs the binaries; it needs the sidecar.yml file to be adapted or replaced after successful installation; you also need to make sure that the service is started ( Install Sidecar and Deploy Collectors ).
