Just started using Installomator and was curious if it's possible to create a single policy that installs multiple apps.

In theory, you should be able to. You'd just need to set your parameters labels as the Application Label since thats the only required parameter. Test it out, but that should be all you need to do.

 

If your not able to use multiple labels in a installomator you can try the below


Create multiple policy with installomator script with different labels using a custom trigger and scope it to all devices

create a new policy which call all the custom trigger created previously, in this way you can install all the apps using a single policy 

Thanks Jason. I have run a few tests before making this post (sorry should have mentioned what I tried). 

Test 1

Parameter 1 (Application Name) = "brave" "shottr" "bbedit"

Fails to install anything

 

Test 2

Param 1 = Brave

Param 5 = shottr

Param 6 = bbedit

Only Brave Installs

 

Test 3

Param 1 = "brave""shottr""bbedit" 

Fails

 

Test 4

Param 1 = brave shottr bbedit

Fails

This is how we currently do our 3rd party updates. We have 18 apps we update, for each app update policy, we have them set to custom with a trigger and ongoing. We have it pointed to the app smart group. Then we have main policy, set as ongoing this is scoped to another smart group that includes the 18 app smart groups. We have a script in this policy that lists the18 policy trigger names. We keep the 18 enabled and control them with the main policy. 

I'll poke around with this. Thanks for the recommendation.
