This class is applicable to all types of configuration items, not just software updates. For a discussion of configuration item types, see the CIType_ID property of SMS_ConfigurationItemBaseClass Server WMI Class.

Your application can query this class to get the list of contents and files associated with the software update configuration item. The class can also be used to get the list of configuration items that contain the specified content.

Software update content must be downloaded manually. To identify the contents to download, your application queries SMS_CIToContent and obtains the list of ContentID properties matching the specified locale criteria. With this list, the application can obtain the associated download URL and related properties for the content files from SMS_CIContentFiles Server WMI Class.
