How to Update the SequenceNumber on an SPEventReceiver via PowerShell

  • Статья

The following will demonstrate how to update the SequenceNumber on an SPEventReceiver via Windows PowerShell.

First, we need to get a reference to the SPList that has our SPEventReceiver registered on it, which can be done with the following PowerShell sample:

PS C:\> $web = Get-SPWeb https://sharepoint2010 PS C:\> $list = $web.Lists["Shared Documents"]

We now have a reference to the "Shared Documents" library, set to variable $list. We can then display all the event receivers registered on the "Shared Documents" library by executing:

PS C:\> $list.EventReceivers

You will now see a list of all event receivers registered for the "Shared Documents" document library. The output will be similar to the following:

Id : ce9f574e-1c7a-4f4e-9670-0420765bc291
Name : Sample Event Receiver
SiteId : e6ff4ed6-2e67-4f58-a4c2-0e162b520a7a
WebId : 419b5b6f-d7fa-44cb-8bb6-daafc7219d60
HostId : 9810722d-58bc-4ae7-85c9-6573bea10c0e
HostType : List
ParentHostId : 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
ParentHostType : Site
Synchronization : Synchronous
Type : ItemAdding
SequenceNumber : 10000
Assembly : Microsoft.SharePoint.Sample.EventReceiver, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=a53c319f89b035f3
Class : Microsoft.SharePoint.Sample.EventReceiver.SampleEventReceiver

We can now use the Id value from the output above and bind to a specific event receiver, which we need to do because we could have more than one event receiver registered on a this list.

PS C:\> $eventReceiver = $list.EventReceivers[[GUID]"ce9f574e-1c7a-4f4e-9670-0420765bc291"]

You could also use the zero-based index of the event receiver, like in this example:

PS C:\> $eventReceiver = $list.EventReceivers[0]

We now have a reference to the event receiver we are trying to update, set to the $eventReceiver variable. We can update the SequenceNumber value from the current value of 10000, to our new value of 50000.

PS C:\> $eventReceiver.SequenceNumber = 50000 PS C:\> $eventReceiver.Update()

The sequence number is now updated and saved on our list event receiver.

This example will update the sequence number on a web event receiver.

PS C:\> $web = Get-SPWeb https://sharepoint2010 PS C:\> $web.EventReceivers PS C:\> $eventReceiver = $web.EventReceivers[0] PS C:\> $eventReceiver.SequenceNumber = 10002 PS C:\> $eventReceiver.Update()

    After invoking $eventReceiver.Update() I've got error message: Exception calling "Update" with "0" argument(s): "No parameterless constructor defined for this object." What's going on?
