  • Presentation Slides and PowerShell code from User Group Meeting Thursday 26'th October

    Hi,

    Just like to thank all those who attended the Presentation last Thursday on controlling SharePoint with PowerShell and Extending the Administration Object model.

    I know it was pretty fast paced and technical so I plan to follow it up with a series of blogs entries recapping the steps and scripts in greater detail.

    I've attached the PowerShell scripts and PowerPoint Slides.

    Some of the topics covered were:

       Powershell Basics

       Exchange 2007 producing PowerShell samples from the new UI console

       Creating a new SharePoint WebApplication and applying a portal template

       Adding users defined in a CSV file to Active Directory

       Adding those users defined in a CSV file to SharePoint roles

       Adding in webs as defined in a CSV file

       Adding content in an XML file to a Publishing Web

       Uploading a directory of files in 4 lines of Script.

       Creating a custom STSAdm command

       Creating an application to sync User Profile properties back to Active Directory

    I'm not able to post the sample code of the AD Sync application as parts of the code is proprietary but I will post a sample application shortly that does a scheduled backup using exactly the same template.

  • Cross-Browser AJAX for SharePoint Lists

    I've just posted a couple of blog entries that goes into detail on how to call SharePoint Web Services from client-side JavaScript code.
