Deploying and Configuring Office 365 “Click-to-Run” Setup

If you have signed up for Office 365 and provisioned user accounts for the users in your organization, you can enable users to install Office 365 ProPlus (and Project Pro, Visio Pro, SharePoint Designer, or Lync products) directly from the Office 365 portal. This is the default option. In managed enterprise environments, end-users may not have permission to install software from the Office 365 portal. Administrators can use the Office Deployment Tool to manage Click-to-Run installations.

To customize a Click-to-Run for Office 365 installation, administrators run the Office Deployment Tool and provide a custom Configuration.xml configuration file. The Office Deployment Tool performs the tasks that are specified by using the optional properties in the configuration file.

For the Office 2013 release, administrators can run the Office Deployment Tool to perform the following tasks:

  • Generating a Click-to-Run for Office 365 installation source   To do this, administrators prepare a configuration file and run the tool in download mode.
  • Configuring Click-to-Run for Office 365 clients   To do this, administrators prepare a configuration file and run the tool in configure mode.
  • Creating an App-V package   To do this, administrators prepare a configuration file and run the tool in packager mode.
