How do I get the id of a folder object using ISHRemote?

Ann Jensen

Hi,

I am trying to use ISHRemote to move folder contents and am failing to see how I get the ID for the ToFolderId parameter if I am creating the folder dynamically via ISHRemote as well

I have tried the code below but Get-IshFolder returns a folder

Move-IshFolder -IshSession $ishSession -FolderID 5061139 -ToFolderId (Get-IshFolder(Add-IshFolder -IshSession $ishSession -ParentFolderId $parentfolderID -FolderType ISHNone -FolderName $folderName -ReadAccess @("") -OwnedBy ""))

How do I get the ID values from and folder object?

Thanks in advance,

Ann

    Hi Ann,

    Where possible the pipeline friendly objects like IshFolder or IshObject are preferred in ISHRemote. It seems v1 cmdlet Move-IshFolder is asking for the Id (so card_id).

    $ishBaseFolder = Get-IshFolder -BaseFolder Data
$ishBaseFolder.IshFolderRef
# would return: 3222

    So if I may suggest a rewrite it would look like

    $ishFolder = Add-IshFolder -IshSession $ishSession -ParentFolderId $parentfolderID -FolderType ISHNone -FolderName $folderName -ReadAccess @("") -OwnedBy "")
Move-IshFolder -IshSession $ishSession -FolderId 5061139 -ToFolderId $ishFolder.IshFolderRef

    The Add-IshFolder cmdlet returns the just created folder for further usage, so the Get-IshFolder was superfluous.
