It appears that the filenames for the full suite installers have changed:
http://macadmins.software/15.19.1/Microsoft_Office_2016_Installer.pkg
http://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/C1297A47-86C4-4C1F-97FA-950631F94777/OfficeMac/Microsoft_Office_2016_15.22.0_160506_Installer.pkg

15.19.1 was the last version that worked for me using the script. When the package runs now it is still looking for Microsoft_Office_2016_Installer.pkg which no longer exists.

The following Installer Choices are available (with version 15.18): word excel powerpoint onenote.mac outlook autoupdate and office.fonts

Too lazy to make a PR atm. However the source from the Slack #microsoft-office channel is linked below. office.fonts is not optional. If you exclude it in a install it will result in the applications not working.

Having trouble gettting it to work, ive followed the detailed tut on https://derflounder.wordpress.com/2015/11/19/downloading-installer-packages-from-the-mac-app-store-with-appstoreextract/ with no success, need some help to get it to work please

Hi,

I would prefer that pkg name formatting would be like Keynote-6.6.1.pkg.
Otherwise tools like munkiimport (item importing tool for Munki) will rename the installer pkg as Keynote_6.6.1-6.6.1.pkg.
Not a big issue really but saves a couple of bytes from the filename...

I just ran AppStoreExtract on the AppStore for the first time on Catalina. It appeared to process correctly, but at the end it created a cryptic file name.dmg file and a pkg.plist file. This seemed odd as this has never happened before... usually the file name reflects the app and the revision and only one file is normally created. I had not yet tried to execute the dmg, but I thought I would ask if anything needs to be addressed for Catalina.

Press any key to finish after downloading new software from AppStore.

seems to ignore space, tab, return, and enter.

Hi, I am trying to use the AppStoreExtract.sh script, but am getting the following error: hdiutil: create failed - Host is down. I know you said that the script will fail when the app is too small of a size, but is there any way to fix this? I'm wondering if the hdiutil "host is down" error has to do with that issue.

I am on macOS 10.14.6, MacBook Pro 13 inch, 2017, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7 w/ 16GB of ram.

Thanks for the help!!

On a freshly downloaded full install ISO from the volume licensing service center, the serializer is named "Microsoft_Office_2016_VL_Serializer_2.0.pkg". The script expects "Microsoft_Office_2016_VL_Serializer.pkg".

AppStoreExtract.sh currently uses a static path to find user's AppStore downloads:

AppStoreRoot="/private/var/folders/rj/dk_2b7m97yq4f3n91fp7jdlm0000gn/C/com.apple.appstore"

I think the line should read

AppStoreRoot="$(getconf DARWIN_USER_CACHE_DIR)/com.apple.appstore"

to make it work for other users.

With current version of Office for Mac(16.17), the "Enhanced Error Reporting" Screen will appear when telemetry and first run dialog turned off. Am working on solution, will commit to my fork when when solved. Any input appreciated.

The error screen looks like this for the excel app:

Otherwise, thank you for a most excellent script.
