This guide is intended for IT administrators who want to install the FacilityNet Outlook add-in via silent install (automatic installation).
NOTE: If you want to avoid restarting during installation, see this article.
If you have a corporate administrator account on FacilityNet:
1. Download the FacilityNet Outlook add-in via the link below:
2. Get the license key by logging into FacilityNet with your administrator account:
3. Open an administrator command prompt (Windows key -> Type “cmd” -> Right-click Command Prompt -> Select "Run as administrator").
4. Enter the installation command in the prompt.
The command is available when you log in to the system as a corporate administrator.
See the guide in step 2.
Example:
This command is unique for each company, so it's important that you log in and find your own command.
Remember to use the correct version:
- If the Outlook installation on the computer is the 32-bit version, you should use the 32-bit installation file and command under Silent install 32bit.
- If the Outlook installation on the computer is the 64-bit version, you should use the 64-bit installation file and command under Silent install 64bit.
Setup file name is the MSI package's file name, e.g., "Setup-2.5.684.msi"
Once the installation is complete, users must restart their Outlook, after which they can use FacilityNet from the panel on the right inside Outlook.
If you do not yet have a corporate administrator account on FacilityNet:
1. Download the FacilityNet Outlook add-in via the link below:

<Host>https://facilitynet.dk/demo</Host>
<LicenseNumber>1234567890</LicenseNumber>
