Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM) and Microsoft Intune use Detection Rules to determine the presence of Applications & Win32 Apps. The detection rules ensure that application installations only begin to run if the application is not already installed on the device. This article will serve as an informative guide and give you a clear understanding of how to create an updated custom detection script for each new version of Adobe XD Creative Cloud using PowerShell.
How to Create a Custom Detection Script for Adobe XD Creative Cloud
Adobe XD Creative Cloud (Detection Method)
- Install the version of Adobe XD Creative Cloud you want to deploy on a test box or VM
- Check out the following posts for further details
- Open Windows PowerShell ISE by Right-Clicking on Windows PowerShell ISE and selecting Run as Administrator
- Copy the following code into the Windows PowerShell ISE
## Check for Adobe XD Creative Cloud (Detection Method)
$AdobeXD = (Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Where-Object Name -like 'Adobe.XD' | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Version -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue)
## Create Text File with Adobe XD Creative Cloud Detection Method
$FilePath = "C:\Windows\Temp\Adobe_XD_Creative_Cloud_Detection_Method.txt"
New-Item -Path "$FilePath" -Force
Set-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "`$AdobeXD = Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Where-Object Name -like 'Adobe.XD' | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Version -ea SilentlyContinue"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "If (`$AdobeXD -ge '$AdobeXD'){"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Write-Host `"Installed`""
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 0"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "else {"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "Exit 1"
Add-Content -Path "$FilePath" -Value "}"
Invoke-Item $FilePath
- Click Run Script (F5)
- A text file will open with the Adobe XD Creative Cloud Detection Method script required to detect the current version of Adobe XD Creative Cloud that is installed on the device you are running the script from.
Example:
$AdobeXD = Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Where-Object Name -like 'Adobe.XD' | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Version -ea SilentlyContinue
If ($AdobeXD -ge '57.0.12.14'){
Write-Host "Installed"
Exit 0
}
else {
Exit 1
}
- Copy the Adobe XD Creative Cloud Detection Method script content into the Custom Detection Rules (Script)
- Microsoft Endpoint Manager Configuration Manager (MEMCM / SCCM)
- Microsoft Intune
