Hi,

As title states, I need the config.xml to install NAV clients silently.

No matter where I look, I can't seem to find anywhere, what the syntax is for the config.xml.

Everywhere I have looked, it simply states that I need some specific options in the xml. But nothing on how to build it, or what the syntax would be.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi, Are you looking for the following file?

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/editing-a-setup-configuration-file

    [View:/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/34/Install_2D00_NavComponentConfig.xml]

    It is saved in the root directory of the installation package.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Yes! That is exactly what I am looking for.

    I don't know how I managed to oversee this.

    But it does the job, after modifying it of course. Thank you!
