Testing large quantities of software packages in Fleet

1. download the following folder of packages: Google Drive Packages

2. Run the following script to upload a folder of packages via the Fleet API:

bash ./tools/software/packages/upload-packages.sh -u $FLEET_URL -t $TEAM_ID -k "$API_KEY" -f $FOLDER_PATH_CONTAINING_PACKAGES [-a]

Notes:

• uploading to a localhost Fleet server is heavily encouraged as uploading a large amount of packages is time consuming and can be subject to timeouts using tools like ngrok
• upload-packages.sh creates non-functional install and uninstall scripts for exe files
• use the -a flag to add auto-install to the upload
