## Remarks

The **Input** function allows you to pass input to a remotely run executable when it is used as a part of the [IXtfRemoteRunCallback Interface](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/tools/xtf/xtfremoterun/classes/IXtfRemoteRunCallback/interfaces/ixtfremoteruncallback.md). The [IXtfRemoteRunCallback Interface](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/tools/xtf/xtfremoterun/classes/IXtfRemoteRunCallback/interfaces/ixtfremoteruncallback.md) is in turn used as a parameter for the [IXtfRemoteRunClient::Run](https://docs.xbox.com/reference/tools/xtf/xtfremoterun/classes/IXtfRemoteRunClient/methods/ixtfremoterunclient_run.md) function. **IXtfRemoteRunCallback::Input** is user defined.

For more information on how to handle LPBSTR pointers returned by this API, please refer to [Allocating and Releasing Memory for a BSTR](https://learn.microsoft.com/cpp/atl-mfc-shared/allocating-and-releasing-memory-for-a-bstr?view=vs-2019).
