Manage Lab management permission through scripts

Artikel
11/14/2014

Lab Management has TfsLabConfig.exe command with which the Lab permissions can be managed. At times, there might be need for script to iterate through objects and set permissions. In the following blog, I would like to share how we can make use of Lab Management client and author PowerShell script for accomplishing the same. This script should be run as collection admin if you would like to manage permissions at collection level. The script should be run from a machine with VS 2012 where the TFS and Lab client dlls are available.

Please note that, using TfsLabConfig.exe would still be the recommended way, wherever possible.
