# Automating CollectorService Deployment

## Problem <a href="#problem" id="problem"></a>

Current instructions for deploying the Sealights CollectorService are manual, and we have several services deployed on our QA machines. We want to automate this step.

## Solution <a href="#solution" id="solution"></a>

{% hint style="warning" %}
The sample code listed in this article is **not supported by Sealights as an official plugin, agent, or product** and is shared as a courtesy.
{% endhint %}

Please find below a sample script allowing you to register Sealights Collector Service with your service using a single command.\
This script will check the agent paths, enable/disable logs, and update the registry for a specified service.

Sample command to use:

{% code overflow="wrap" lineNumbers="true" %}

```
.\SL.RegisterServiceProfiler.ps1 -agentpath C:\Sealights\SL.DotNet -servicename MySealightsTest -logdir C:\Sealights\logs -loglevel 6
```
