{% hint style="info" %}
Adapt these suggested configuration steps to edit and customize content according to your organizational needs.
{% endhint %}

### **Step 1 - Install library pack content**

Go to the [Nexthink Library](https://nexthink.gitbook.io/opd/user-guide/nexthink-library) and install all required content.

### **Step 2 - Configure remote action(s)**

Navigate to the [manage remote action](https://nexthink.gitbook.io/opd/user-guide/remote-actions/managing-remote-actions) administration page to review and edit your remote actions.

We recommend the following configurations for these remote actions:

<table><thead><tr><th>Name</th><th width="148">Trigger</th><th width="202">Schedule query</th><th>Parameters to edit</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Get Dell pending BIOS firmware and driver updates</td><td>Scheduled, daily</td><td><pre><code>devices during past 24h
| where device.hardware.manufacturer in ["Dell"]
<strong>| list device.name
</strong></code></pre></td><td><ul><li>DCU required version</li><li>DCU 64Bit download URL</li><li>DCU 32Bit download</li></ul></td></tr><tr><td>Get HP pending BIOS firmware and driver updates</td><td>Scheduled, daily</td><td><pre data-full-width="true"><code><strong>devices during past 24h
</strong>| where device.hardware.manufacturer in ["Hewlett-Packard"]
| list device.name
</code></pre></td><td><ul><li>HPIA required version</li><li>HPIA tool download URL</li></ul></td></tr><tr><td>Get Lenovo pending firmware BIOS and driver update</td><td>Scheduled, daily</td><td><pre><code><strong>devices during past 24h
</strong><strong>| where device.hardware.manufacturer in ["Lenovo"]
</strong>| list device.name
</code></pre></td><td><ul><li>repository_type</li><li>central_repository_url</li><li>maximum_delay_in_seconds</li></ul></td></tr><tr><td>Invoke install Dell pending driver updates</td><td>Manual, can be triggered on multiple devices</td><td></td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Invoke install HP pending driver updates</td><td>Manual, can be triggered on multiple devices</td><td></td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

### **Step 3 - Edit campaigns**

Navigate to the [manage campaigns](https://nexthink.gitbook.io/opd/user-guide/campaigns/managing-campaigns) administration page to review and edit your campaigns.

For each installed campaign, please ensure to:

* Customize the sender name and image.
* Review and adjust questions.
* Publish the campaign when you are ready to use it.

We recommend the following configurations for these campaigns:

| Name                       | Trigger       | Priority   |
| -------------------------- | ------------- | ---------- |
| Update drivers - Invoke    | Remote action | Not urgent |
| Restart to update - Invoke | Remote action | Not urgent |
| Update drivers - Completed | Remote action | Not urgent |
