NAME Get-ItemPropertyValue
SYNOPSIS
Gets the value for one or more properties of a specified item.
SYNTAX
Get-ItemPropertyValue [-Name] <String[]> [-Credential <PSCredential>] [-Exclude <String[]>] [-Filter <String>] [-Include <String[]>] -LiteralPath
<String[]> [-UseTransaction] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-ItemPropertyValue [[-Path] <String[]>] [-Name] <String[]> [-Credential <PSCredential>] [-Exclude <String[]>] [-Filter <String>] [-Include
<String[]>] [-UseTransaction] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
The Get-ItemPropertyValue gets the current value for a property that you specify when you use the Name parameter, located in a path that you
specify with either the Path or LiteralPath parameters.
PARAMETERS
-Credential <PSCredential>
Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user. Type a user name, such as User01 or
Domain01\\User01, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, you are prompted
for a password. This parameter is not supported by any providers that are installed with Windows PowerShell.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Exclude <String[]>
Specifies, as a string array, an item or items that this cmdlet excludes from the operation.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Filter <String>
Specifies a filter in the provider's format or language. The value of this parameter qualifies the Path parameter. The syntax of the filter,
including the use of wildcard characters, depends on the provider. Filters are more efficient than other parameters, because the provider
applies them when the cmdlet gets the objects rather than having Windows PowerShell filter the objects after they are retrieved.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Include <String[]>
Specifies, as a string array, an item or items that this cmdlet includes in the operation.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-LiteralPath <String[]>
Specifies a path to the item property. In contrast to the Path parameter, the value of LiteralPath is used exactly as it is typed. No
characters are interpreted as wildcards. If the path includes escape characters, enclose it in single quotation marks.
Required? true
Position? named
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Name <String[]>
Specifies the name of the property or properties to retrieve.
Required? true
Position? 1
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? False
Accept wildcard characters? false
-Path <String[]>
Specifies the path to the item or items.
Required? false
Position? 0
Default value None
Accept pipeline input? True (ByPropertyName, ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
-UseTransaction [<SwitchParameter>]
Includes the command in the active transaction. This parameter is valid only when a transaction is in progress. For more information, see
