  5. Complete the following items as appropriate:
  6. Click the arrow below the Revit product name again to collapse the configuration settings.
  7. (Optional) Under Include Additional Software, specify additional add-ins, extensions, or applications to install as part of the deployment.
  8. For Installation, specify the root path on target computers where the software will be installed.
  9. Click Create.

The Content Pack Status dialog displays while the installer reads content from the media and from online resources. This process may take a few minutes to complete. (If you are not connected to the internet, the installer skips the online search and uses the media content.)

The installer then builds the deployment package. This process can take several minutes. When it finishes, the Deployment Configuration Complete page displays the following information:
  • Shortcut (LNK file) to use to install the products included in the deployment
  • Shortcut to use to modify the deployment
  • Link to register products online
