Powershell script to install Azure Service Fabric SDK, runtime and tools silently

I know this is not exactly what you asked for but you can use Web Platform Installer Command Line to install WebPI products silently. The idea is to download WebPICMD and run installation of Service Fabric SDK from the cmd line. The powershell script can look like this:

Invoke-WebRequest "https://download.microsoft.com/download/C/F/F/CFF3A0B8-99D4-41A2-AE1A-496C08BEB904/WebPlatformInstaller_amd64_en-US.msi" -OutFile "C:\WebPlatformInstaller.msi" -UseBasicParsing;Start-Process "msiexec" -ArgumentList '/i', 'C:\WebPlatformInstaller.msi', '/passive', '/quiet', '/norestart', '/qn' -NoNewWindow -Wait; rm "C:\WebPlatformInstaller.msi"WebPICMD.exe /Install /Products:MicrosoftAzure-ServiceFabric-CoreSDK /AcceptEULA

Product MicrosoftAzure-ServiceFabric-CoreSDK will install latest version of Service Fabric SDK and Service Fabric Runtime silently.

If you want to install something different from the WebPI run :

WebPICMD.exe /List /ListOption:All

This command will list all of the available products, just grab the id of the product and run install command.

More about WebPICMD here.

To add on the answer above, if WebPlatformCMD gives you Windows' UAC consent window issues, you can use PSEXEC tools to run the installer as system account, avoiding that problem.

Example code:

 Invoke-WebRequest "https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=287166" -OutFile "$env:temp\WebPlatformInstaller_amd64_en-US.msi" -UseBasicParsing Start-Process "msiexec" -ArgumentList "/i $env:temp\WebPlatformInstaller_amd64_en-US.msi /passive /quiet /norestart /qn" -NoNewWindow -Wait $psToolsPath = "$env:temp\pstools" New-Item $psToolsPath -ItemType directory -force -erroraction silentlycontinue Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://download.sysinternals.com/files/PSTools.zip -OutFile $psToolsPath\PSTools.zip Expand-Archive "$psToolsPath\PSTools.zip" $psToolsPath -force cd $psToolsPath Start-Process psexec64 -ArgumentList "-s /accepteula WebPICMD.exe /Install /Products:MicrosoftAzure-ServiceFabric-CoreSDK /AcceptEULA"

Small note on SteppingRazor's answer above.

You can ease out the ArgumentList Parameter value like this:

Start-Process "msiexec" -ArgumentList "/i C:\WebPlatformInstaller.msi /passive /quiet /norestart /qn -NoNewWindow -Wait

Instead of

Start-Process "msiexec" -ArgumentList '/i', 'C:\WebPlatformInstaller.msi', '/passive', '/quiet', '/norestart', '/qn' -NoNewWindow -Wait;

Then using variables in the string is also easier.
