Accessing Package Details More Easily

Hi team,

I'm looking for ideas on how to streamline the process of accessing package details for scripting purposes.

Currently, I'm working on post-scripts and pre-scripts common to all our packages. I've found it challenging to retrieve the "Package name." I had to create a script that parses the "C:\Program Files\Patch My PC\Patch My PC Publishing Service\Supported Products\SupportedProducts.xml" file to get the information, as the data in the Package Details window (see screenshot, Zone 1 or 2) isn't directly accessible or readily available elsewhere (Zone 3).

To make this easier, I'd like to propose adding a field that can be copied directly from the "Package Details" window. This field would contain the same information displayed in Zone 1 or 2 of the screenshot.

Do you have any thoughts or suggestions on how we could achieve this or a better way to get the "Package Name"? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
