Fetch default values of folders with PowerShell

  • Artigo

If you want to fetch folder default values with PowerShell you need to call the Method Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.MetadataDefaults.GetFieldDefault.

 

The following PowerShell script will show you how to use this method:

 

add-pssnapin microsoft.sharepoint.powershell -ea silentlycontinue
[Reflection.Assembly]::LoadwithPartialName("Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement")

$web = get-spweb https://server/sites/thesite
$lib = $web.Lists["Shared Documents"]

 

$metadataDefaults = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.MetadataDefaults -ArgumentList $lib

foreach ($oneFolder in $lib.Folders) {
    Write-Host ("Folder: {0}" -f $oneFolder.Url)
    $folderObject = $web.GetFolder($oneFolder.Url)
    $folderDefaultValue = $metadataDefaults.GetFieldDefault($folderObject, "ColumnName")
    Write-Host (" Default Value: {0}" -f $folderDefaultValue)
}

$web.dispose()
