Show file copy progress Office 365 deployment
Is there a way to have PDQ Deploy show the file copy progress installing Office 365?
Using the guide posted here: https://support.pdq.com/hc/en-us/articles/220509707-Deploy-Office-365
Since it's just running a command step, there's no way of telling how long the file copy is taking vs the actual installation.

You could change the Command step to an Install step. Just make sure to enable "Include Entire Directory."
I think that's exactly what I need. Will it work it I just tell it to include the XML file instead of the entire directory? We have two different release channels we're deploying, so there are two XML files in that directory.
No, because then it would only copy the setup.exe and XML file. The Install step copies files to a temporary directory on the target and executes them from there.
Well, I guess it wouldn't matter if the other XML file was copied as long as the /configure switch is pointing to the right XML file, right?
Actually, I just realized that would end up copying the install files for both versions...definitely don't want to copy 3GB of files...
I just separated out the current and deferred channel folders. Thanks for the help!
