Introduction
Installs Level's implementation of winget on a device. This is the foundation for all winget-based app management actions in Level — if it's not present, those actions install it automatically before running.
Install Winget
Open an automation and add a new action step.
Under App management, select Install winget.
This action has no configuration options. Expand Conditions or Additional options if needed.
Click Save.
ℹ️ NOTE: Level's winget implementation is separate from the Windows Package Manager that ships with Windows. Level installs and manages its own version to ensure consistent behavior across your environment.
💡 TIP: Other winget actions (Install, Uninstall, and Upgrade Winget Package) will install Level's winget automatically if it's not already present. Use this action explicitly when you want to pre-install it as a dedicated step — for example, at device enrollment.
Conditions
Restrict when this action runs based on device attributes or the outcome of a previous action. Expand the Conditions section to add conditions.
See Action Conditions for the full reference on condition types, operators, and values.
Additional Options
Expand Additional options for settings including action name, failure behavior, output variables, and retries.
See Actions Overview for the full reference on additional options available on every action.
FAQ
Does this action do anything if Level's winget is already installed? If it's already present, the action completes without making changes.
Do I need this action before using Install or Upgrade Winget Package? Not strictly. Other winget actions will install Level's winget automatically if it's missing. This action is useful when you want explicit control over when that installation happens — for example, during device enrollment before any app actions run.
Who can add this action to an automation? Any technician with permission to create or edit automations in the relevant group.
