UI overview

The window has three parts:

• the sidebar on the left
• the header at the top, with the breadcrumb, the help menu and the package bar when a package is open
• the main area

Sidebar: top section #

Entry	Purpose
Packages Workspace	Create, open, build, upload, convert, tag and delete packages
App Catalog	Browse Evergreen and winget applications and create packages from them
Installed Apps	Browse applications installed on this computer, generate uninstall commands, take snapshots and compare them
FSLogix Rules	Build FSLogix App Masking rule sets (Pro; shows a lock in Free)
Activity Log	The history of what you did and any errors you were shown

Sidebar: Wizard Steps #

When a package is open, the sidebar shows Wizard Steps with the package type and its steps:

• Completed steps show a check mark.
• A step stays disabled until the steps before it are valid.
• Click any available step to jump to it.

The steps depend on the package type:

Type	Steps
PSADT (7)	Files, Session Config, Parameters, Install Phase, Uninstall Phase, Repair Phase, Preview
MSIX (6)	Source Files, Package Identity, Dependencies, Applications, Signing, Preview & Build
App Attach (6)	MSIX Source, Image Format, Signing, Lifecycle Scripts, Metadata, Preview & Build
IntuneWin (6)	Source Files, App Information, Program, Detection Rules, Requirements, Preview & Build

Sidebar: bottom section #

• Settings: application settings, toolkit, PSADT templates and package configuration
• Tags: manage your tag library
• Connections: Intune, Azure Storage and MECM connections (Pro; shows a lock in Free)
• Upgrade card (Free edition only): links to the full version and to the plans
• Dark Mode / Light Mode switch. Your choice is remembered.
• About: version, platform, license (EULA) and website

Header #

• The breadcrumb shows where you are. Long package names that are cut off are shown in full when you hover over them.
• The help menu (question-mark icon) has two entries:
  • Documentation opens this documentation.
  • Report a Bug opens an e-mail to XOAP support.

Package bar #

While a package is open, a bar under the header shows:

• Active, followed by the package name
• Exit: closes the package and returns to the Packages Workspace
• Save: saves your changes now. Changes are also saved automatically.

Wizard footer #

At the bottom of each wizard step you find:

• Back
• Step N of M
• Next Step: <name>. This button is disabled while the current step has errors.
• Finish, on the last step. For PSADT, MSIX and IntuneWin packages, Finish saves the package, builds it, stores the result in the workspace and returns to the Packages Workspace (see Exporting and building packages).

Packages Workspace (dashboard) #

Package type tabs #

At the top of the workspace are four tabs: PSADT Packages, MSIX Packages, App Attach Packages and IntuneWin Packages.

• Each tab shows how many packages of that type you have.
• In the Free edition, the MSIX, App Attach and IntuneWin tabs show a lock.

Header #

• Start New <Type> Package creates a package of the type of the selected tab and opens its first wizard step.
• Import Local imports existing PSADT .zip packages.
• Package usage (Free edition) shows how many of your 10 packages you have used. A banner appears when you are close to the limit.

Toolbar #

Control	Description
Tag filter	Show only packages with a given tag (or All tags)
Search	Filter packages by name
Select All Packages	Select every visible package
Assign Tags	Add or remove tags on all selected packages
Download / Build	PSADT tab: Download ZIP for every selected package. Other tabs: build every selected package (Build MSIX, Build VHDX, Build .intunewin).
Upload	Upload every selected package to Intune or Azure Storage (Pro; not available for App Attach)
Delete	Delete the selected packages (asks for confirmation)

Package card #

Each card shows:

• the package name, with the full name on hover
• ACTIVE when the package is currently open
• an amber UPDATE badge when the App Catalog has a newer version
• vendor and version
• a status line, which depends on the type:
  • PSADT: number of parameters
  • App Attach: image format and size
  • IntuneWin: number of detection rules
• the assigned tags

The action buttons on the card are:

Button	Description
Edit Package	Open the package in the wizard
Update	Only on catalog packages with a newer version. Creates a new package at the new version (Pro).
Duplicate	Create a copy of the package
Download / Build	Download the stored build if one exists. Otherwise build the package: Download ZIP, Build MSIX, Build VHDX or Build .intunewin.
Upload	Upload to Intune or Azure Storage, or deploy to MECM (Pro; PSADT, MSIX and IntuneWin only)
Convert…	Open the Conversion Assistant (see Converting packages)
Delete	Delete the package

To select several packages, use the checkbox on each card. You can then export, upload, tag or delete them all at once.
