Overview of Scripted Actions Groups

Scripted Actions Groups allows administrators to create script collections and assign them during standard deployment tasks.

Scripted actions group tasks are not performed in isolation. If a scripted action group is deployed as part of task, it operates in exactly the same way as it would if the scripts had been added individually. Therefore, administrators should ensure that tasks within a scripted actions group are ordered correctly for the required outcome. In addition, ensure that the order of both individual scripted actions and scripted actions groups within the task are sequenced appropriately.
