<h1>Mass Deployment And Account Creation<a class="headerlink" href="#mass-deployment-and-account-creation" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>It is possible to perform mass deployment of the F7cloud desktop client by passing certain command-line parameters from the deployment step to F7cloud desktop client executable after the initial setup.
This will allow desktop client to generate a config (.cfg) file that will be used during subsequent launches.
A config file will have a corresponding account written into it similar to if you have added it manually via the desktop clients UI.
The desktop client will exit with code 0 if account has been added successfully, or 1 in case of failure.
Detailed failure message is printed to the desktop client logs.</p>
<p>The following parameters are supported:</p>
<dl class="simple">
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--userid</span></code></dt><dd><p>(required) userId (username as on the server) to pass when creating an account via command-line.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--apppassword</span></code></dt><dd><p>(required) appPassword to pass when creating an account via command-line (see the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">login-flow</span></code> section in server documentation on how to generate the app password).</p>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--localdirpath</span></code></dt><dd><p>(optional) path where to create a local sync folder when creating an account via command-line. If skipped, then default local sync folder path (/home/&lt;userid&gt;/F7cloud&lt;n&gt; for Linux/mac or C:/&lt;userid&gt;/F7cloud&lt;n&gt; for Windows) will be generated by desktop client.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--isvfsenabled</span></code></dt><dd><p>(optional) whether to set a VFS or non-VFS folder (1 for yes or 0 for no) when creating an account via command-line. Default is 0.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--remotedirpath</span></code></dt><dd><p>(optional) path to a remote subfolder when creating an account via command-line. e.g. If the server has folders “/Photos”, “/Documents”, “/Music” you can pass “/Music” and then this folder will get set up as remote root.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--serverurl</span></code></dt><dd><p>(required) a server URL to use when creating an account via command-line. (NOTE: There is another parameter supported by F7cloud desktop client <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--overrideserverurl</span></code> but it SHOULD NOT be used here as it is intended for setup via UI with wizard)</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<p>Examples:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">C:\Program</span> <span class="pre">Files\F7cloud\f7cloud.exe&quot;</span> <span class="pre">--userid</span> <span class="pre">admin</span> <span class="pre">--apppassword</span> <span class="pre">Jliy12356785jxnHa2ZCiZ9MX48ncECwDso95Pq3a5HABjY34ZvhZiXrPfpKWUg7aOHAX5</span> <span class="pre">--localdirpath</span> <span class="pre">&quot;D:\\F7cloud-sync-folder&quot;</span> <span class="pre">--remotedirpath</span> <span class="pre">/Music</span> <span class="pre">--serverurl</span> <span class="pre">&quot;https://cloud.example.com&quot;</span> <span class="pre">--isvfsenabled</span> <span class="pre">1&quot;</span></code> - this will create a config file for user admin on the server <a class="reference external" href="https://cloud.example.com">https://cloud.example.com</a> and set a remote root folder to “Music”, the local sync folder will get created with VFS mode.</p></li>
<li><p>For Linux and mac the same example as above will work but <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">f7cloud.exe</span> <span class="pre">path</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">--localdirpath</span></code> value should get changed to platform specific format (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">no</span> <span class="pre">.exe</span> <span class="pre">extension</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">/home/&lt;user</span> <span class="pre">folder&gt;</span></code> format)</p></li>
