You should be able to use the postSync argument:

msdeploy -verb:sync -source:contentPath="C:\Test1" -dest:contentPath="C:\Test2" -postSync:runcommand="c:\MyBatchFile.bat"

Hi @chief7, can this command be added to the .pubxml file when publishing, instead of having to publish via command-line? – Masonite
