I have SharePoint 2010 environment. Many documents are checked out by other users.
I need to bulk check-in those documents. Can anyone suggest to me a reliable way for the same?
Thanks
You could try below PowerShell.
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
#Variables
$WebURL="http://domain/sites/emilytest"
$LibraryURL="/Shared%20Documents" #Relative URL of a folder or library
#Get Objects
$Web = Get-SPWeb $WebURL
$Folder = $web.GetFolder($LibraryURL)
#Function to find all checked out files in a SharePoint library
Function CheckIn-CheckedOutFiles($Folder)
{
$Folder.Files | Where { $_.CheckOutStatus -ne "None" } | ForEach-Object {
write-host ($_.Name,$_.URL,$_.CheckedOutBy)
#To Check in
$_.Checkin("Checked in by Administrator")
}
#Process all sub folders
$Folder.SubFolders | ForEach-Object {
CheckIn-CheckedOutFiles $_
}
}
#Call the function to find checkedout files
CheckIn-CheckedOutFiles $Folder
Can anyone help me to get the script to remove the backup file older than 45 days from storage Blob container.
Actually i want to run the script in Managed instance ( PAAS) through SQL server agent job.
Please help me on this.
According this post.
I think you can modifier the PS script. Change $FromDate = ((Get-Date).AddDays(-6)).Date to $FromDate = ((Get-Date).AddDays(-45)).Date . The script is as follows:
#PowerShell Script to delete System Databases .bak files from Azure Block Blob
#-eq = equals
#-ne = not equals
#-lt = less than
#-gt = greater than
#-le = less than or equals
#-ge = greater than or equals
#Set All Variables
$YesterdayDate = ((Get-Date).AddDays(-1)).Date #Get Yesterday date
$FromDate = ((Get-Date).AddDays(-45)).Date #Get 6 Days back date from Today
$BlobType = "Pageblob"
$bacs = Get-ChildItem $location -Filter *.bak
$container="dwhdatabasesbackup"
$StorageAccountName="analytics"
$StorageAccountKey="xxxxxx"
$context = New-AzureStorageContext -StorageAccountName $StorageAccountName -StorageAccountKey $StorageAccountKey
$filelist = Get-AzureStorageBlob -Container $container -Context $context
#Foreach Loop With a Condition $_.LastModified.Date -eq $YesterdayDate to make Sure there was a File Uploaded Yesterday
foreach ($filein$filelist | Where-Object {$_.LastModified.Date -eq $YesterdayDate -and $_.BlobType -eq $BlobType -and ($_.Name -like "*.bak")})
{
$Yesterdayfile = $file.Name
if ($Yesterdayfile -ne $null)
{
$FileFullLength = $Yesterdayfile.Length
$FileNameWithoutDatePart = $Yesterdayfile.SubString(0, $FileFullLength-30)
Write-Output ("File Name Without Date Part: " +$FileNameWithoutDatePart)
#Foreach Loop With a Condition $_.LastModified.Date -lt $FromDate to Remove Files those are 5 Days Old
foreach ($filein$filelist | Where-Object {$_.LastModified.Date -lt $FromDate -and $_.BlobType -eq $BlobType -and ($_.Name -like "$FileNameWithoutDatePart*.bak")})
{
$removefile = $file.Name
$RemoveFileFullLength = $removefile.Length
$ModifiedDate = $file.LastModified.Date
if (($removefile -ne $null) -and ($RemoveFileFullLength -eq $FileFullLength))
{
Write-Output ("Remove File Name: ("+$removefile +") as Modified Date: ("+ $ModifiedDate +") of File is Older Than Date: ("+ $FromDate + ")")
}
}
}
}
I've got a PowerShell script that I call from VBA using Excel. The script uses WinSCP to download some datetime-named FTP and SFTP files and saves them with a static filename, overwriting the old file, on a network drive location.
The script works on first run, but after that it loads the same cached version of the file. The workaround is to change the cache settings in IE to check for newer versions of stored webpages 'every time I visit the webpage'.
The macro is used by several people and is accessed using a variety of computers. Is there a way around this that I can incorporate in my code, either in VBA or PS so they don't have to remember to go into IE to change their settings?
Script is called from VBA:
Call Shell("powershell -executionpolicy bypass & ""H:\FTP\FTP.ps1""", vbHide)
Script:
try
{
# Load WinSCP .NET assembly
Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\WinSCPnet.dll"
$localPath = "H:\Worksheets\FTP"
$remotePath = "/outgoing/data/LatestData/"
# Setup session options
$sessionOptions = New-Object WinSCP.SessionOptions
$sessionOptions.Protocol = [WinSCP.Protocol]::ftp
$sessionOptions.HostName =
$sessionOptions.UserName =
$sessionOptions.Password =
$session = New-Object WinSCP.Session
try
{
# Connect
$session.Open($sessionOptions)
# Get list of files in the directory
$directoryInfo = $session.ListDirectory($remotePath)
# Select the most recent file
$latest = $directoryInfo.Files |
Where-Object { -Not $_.IsDirectory} |
Where-Object {
[System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($_.Name) -eq ".nc1" -or
[System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($_.Name) -eq ".ky1" -or
[System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($_.Name) -like ".tn*" }
Group-Object { [System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($_.Name) } |
ForEach-Object{
$_.Group | Sort-Object LastWriteTime -Descending | Select -First 1
}
$extension = [System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($latest.Name)
"GetExtension('{0}') returns '{1}'" -f $fileName, $extension
if ($latest -eq $Null)
{
Write-Host "No file found"
exit 1
}
$latest | ForEach-Object{
$extension = ([System.IO.Path]::GetExtension($_.Name)).Trim(".")
$session.GetFiles($session.EscapeFileMask($remotePath + $_.Name), "$localPath\$extension.txt" ).Check()
}
$stamp = $(Get-Date -f "yyyy-MM-dd-HHmm")
$filename = $stamp.subString(0,$stamp.length-6)
$session.GetFiles(
($remotePath + $fileName),
($localPath + $fileName + "." + $stamp)).Check()
}
finally
{
# Disconnect, clean up
$session.Dispose()
}
exit 0
}
catch [Exception]
{
Write-Host $_.Exception.Message

I need a way to execute a SQL (by importing a .SQL script) on a remote Oracle DB using PowerShell. In addition to this I am also trying to output the results in an .xls format in a desired folder location. To add to the fun, I would also want to run this task on an automatic schedule. Please help !
I have gotten so far :
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName ("System.Data.OracleClient") | Out-Null
$connection = "my TNS entry"
$queryString = "my SQL query"
$command = new-Object System.Data.OracleClient.OracleCommand($queryString, $connection)
$connection.Open()
$reader = $command.ExecuteReader()
$tempArr = #()
#read all rows into a hash table
while ($reader.Read())
{
$row = #{}
for ($i = 0; $i -lt $reader.FieldCount; $i++)
{
$row[$reader.GetName($i)] = $reader.GetValue($i)
}
#convert hashtable into an array of PSObjects
$tempArr+= new-object psobject -property $row
}
$connection.Close()
write-host "Conn State--> " $connection.State
$tmpArr | Export-Csv "my File Path" -NoTypeInformation
$Error[0] | fl -Force
The easiest way is to drive sqlplus.exe via powershell. To execute the sql and get the output you do this:
$result = sqlplus.exe #file.sql [credentials/server]
#parse result into CSV here which can be loaded into excel
You can schedule this script with something like:
schtasks.exe /create /TN sqlplus /TR "Powershell -File script.ps1" /ST 10 ...
For this you need to have sqlplus installed (it comes with oracle express and you could install it without it). This obviously introduces dependency that is not needed but sqlplus could be used to examine the database and do any kind of thing which might be good thing to have around.
For some reason I can't get this variable ($SelectedDrive) to store data in it using the Get-Content cmdlet.
I have created a function as shown below:
#Allow user to select which drive to backup to and checks that the user hasn't canceled out of the Drive Selection GUI
Function SelectDrive{
ShowUSBs | Out-File $locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt
Get-Content $locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt | Out-GridView -OutputMode Single -Title "Choose USB Storage Device" | Out-File $locBackupFolder\Drive.txt -Encoding default
$SelectedDrive = Get-Content $locBackupFolder\Drive.txt
IF ($SelectedDrive -eq $null) {
WarningCancel
RemoveBackupDrive
Exit
} ELSE {
$BackupDrive = $SelectedDrive.Substring(0,2)
}
}
When I run the script in Powershell ISE using the F5 button it runs through, and then fails to enter the data.
I go back and check it over and can't see any issue, as it works if I run it piece by piece using Run Selection.
The whole script is below:

If I can be of any further assistance, please let me know.
I think your problem is simply that the SelectDrive function doesn't return anything. $backupDrive is local to the function, so you cannot refer to it from outside the function.
Also converting everything to text is going to introduce other bugs, e.g. you can select any line from the grid view including your headers and the blank lines top and bottom. Some better code might be:
Function GetUSBs{
$USBInfo = gwmi win32_diskdrive |
?{$_.interfacetype -eq "USB"} |
%{gwmi -Query "ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_DiskDrive.DeviceID=`"$($_.DeviceID.replace('\','\\'))`"} WHERE AssocClass = Win32_DiskDriveToDiskPartition"} |
%{gwmi -Query "ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_DiskPartition.DeviceID=`"$($_.DeviceID)`"} WHERE AssocClass = Win32_LogicalDiskToPartition"}
Write-Output $USBInfo | select #{n="Drive Letter";e={$_.DeviceID}},#{n="USB Name";e={$_.VolumeName}}
}
Function SelectDrive{
$usbs = GetUSBs
$usbs | Format-Table -AutoSize | Out-File $locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt
$selectedDrive = $usbs | Out-GridView -OutputMode Single -Title "Choose USB Storage Device"
$selectedDrive | Out-File $locBackupFolder\Drive.txt -Encoding default
if ($SelectedDrive -eq $null) {
WarningCancel
RemoveBackupDrive
exit
} else {
write-output $selectedDrive.'Drive Letter'.Substring(0,2)
}
}
$backupDrive = SelectDrive
This version still writes to your two files, but it doesn't read either of them, instead it keeps the objects internally. This means you get a better display in the grid view as the grid's own column headings are used, and you don't get any selectable lines you don't want.
There's a lot going on in your script, I debugged through it myself and found that these lines are causing the problems
ShowUSBs | Out-File $locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt
Get-Content $locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt | Out-GridView -OutputMode Single -Title "Choose USB Storage Device" | Out-File $locBackupFolder\Drive.txt -Encoding default
$SelectedDrive = Get-Content "$locBackupFolder\Drive.txt"
You need to remove this block of code:
Out-File $locBackupFolder\Drive.txt -Encoding default
It is creating a new blank Drive.txt file, after which, Get-Content is being called on that empty file.
Therefore, it is getting the content of a blank file, which will always result in the $SelectedDrive variable being set to null.
I've added content to my Drive.txt file after this block has been removed and the $SelectedDrive variable is set to the content of the file as expected
This construct won't work as you seem to expect:
Get-Content file | Out-GridView | Out-File otherfile
Out-GridView doesn't pass the data back into the pipeline for further processing. If you need data in both a grid view and a file you need to use the Tee-Object cmdlet before Out-GridView:
Get-Content file | Tee-Object otherfile | Out-GridView
In your case:
Get-Content "$locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt" |
Tee-Object "$locBackupFolder\Drive.txt" |
Out-GridView -OutputMode Single -Title 'Choose USB Storage Device'
If you want the user to select a particular Item, Out-GridView won't work at all, because it's for output only (hence the verb Out). You'll need a form with a list box to allow the user to select an item:
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Drawing")
$frm = New-Object Windows.Forms.Form
$btn = New-Object Windows.Forms.Button
$btn.Location = New-Object Drawing.Size(10,220)
$btn.Size = New-Object Drawing.Size(75,23)
$btn.Text = "OK"
$btn.Add_Click({$frm.Close()})
$frm.Controls.Add($btn)
$list = New-Object Windows.Forms.ListBox
$list.Location = New-Object Drawing.Size(10,10)
$list.Size = New-Object Drawing.Size(260,40)
$list.Height = 200
Get-Content "$locBackupFolder\RemovableStorage.txt" | % {
$list.Items.Add($_)
} | Out-Null
$frm.Controls.Add($list)
$frm.Add_Shown({$frm.Activate()})
[void]$frm.ShowDialog()
$SelectedDrive = $list.SelectedItem
