What is the product ID for Visio and Project Online Desktop client, in the Office Configuration XML

Anandu Ramachandran 40

I am trying to create an xml document to uninstall a previously deployed instance of Visio and Project Online Desktop using intune. In the normal case these apps are removed from the suite using an exclude app tag like: <ExcludeApp ID="OneDrive">, i need the ID for both Visio and Project Online Desktop.

Have you tried the config.office online tool? https://rahuljindalmyit.blogspot.com/2021/02/how-to-generate-custom-xml-using-online.html

I have tried this, but i do not get the app ID for Visio as it will only be configured in the VisioProRetail suite but i am using this in intune to remove a previously deployed instance of visio inside the VisioProRetail suite, but i do not have the app ID for it.

In the previous configuration it is deployed like:

    <Product ID="VisioProRetail">
      <Language ID="en-us" />
      <Language ID="MatchPreviousMSI" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Access" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Excel" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Groove" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Lync" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="OneDrive" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="OneNote" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Outlook" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="PowerPoint" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Publisher" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Teams" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Word" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Bing" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Bing" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Bing" />
    </Product>

I have tried removing the VisioProRetail Product tag alltogather, but it still does not uninstall while sending through intune.

      <ExcludeApp ID="Bing" />
      <ExcludeApp ID="Bing" />
    </Product>
  </Add>

  <Updates Enabled="TRUE" />
  <RemoveMSI />
  <Display Level="Full" AcceptEULA="TRUE" />
</Configuration>

i am able to uninstall a previously deployed app when i add its ID to the uninstall tag inside the product suite. But i am not able to do this as i do not know the app ID of Visio to add inside the VisioProRetail Product suite.
