Some of you may have noticed my recent posts on some questions in the forum. Here’s another one… 🙂
I’m trying to create some deployment scripts using PowerShell. I’m able to connect to my tenant but am not able to do much with it afterwards. Any thoughts?
Add-Type -Path “C:\dll\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll”
Add-Type -Path “C:\dll\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll”
Add-Type -Path “C:\dll\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Taxonomy.dll”
$tenantAdmin = “https://tenant-admin.sharepoint.com”
$tenantRoot = “https://tenant.sharepoint.com”
$adminUser = “haniel@tenant.onmicrosoft.com”
$password = “password”
$securePassword = ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force
$credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($adminUser, $securePassword)
$ctx = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($tenantRoot)
$ctx.Credentials = $credentials
$webs = $ctx.Web
$ctx.Web or other objects I’m trying to access come back as null. Any thoughts?
Hi David,
Thanks for the samples. Those are great. However, I’m running into an issue right at the start. Here’s what I get when I try to add the Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell snapin:
Add-PSSnapin : No snap-ins have been registered for Windows PowerShell version 5.
I tried running it as administrator from ISE and from the SharePoint Online Management Shell.
Thanks,
-Haniel
