NAME ConvertFrom-PSFArray
SYNOPSIS
Flattens properties that have array values.
SYNTAX
ConvertFrom-PSFArray [[-JoinBy] <String>] [[-PropertyName] <String[]>] [-InputObject <Object>] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
Flattens properties that have array values.
With this you can prepare objects for export to systems that cannot handle collection in propertyvalues.
This flattening happens using a string join operation, so the output on modified properties is guaranteed to be a
string.
PARAMETERS
-JoinBy <String>
The string sequence to join values by.
Defaults to ", "
Required? false
Position? 1
Default value ,
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-PropertyName <String[]>
The properties to affect.
Interprets wildcards, defaults to '*'.
Required? false
Position? 2
Default value *
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
-InputObject <Object>
The objects the properties of which to flatten.
Required? false
Position? named
Default value
Accept pipeline input? true (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters? false
<CommonParameters>
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug,
ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction, WarningVariable,
OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable. For more information, see
about_CommonParameters (https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
INPUTS
OUTPUTS
-------------------------- EXAMPLE 1 --------------------------
PS C:\\>Get-Something | ConvertFrom-PSFArray | Export-Csv -Path .\\output.csv
Processes the output of Get-Something in order to produce a flat table to export data to csv without trimming
collections.
