Use PowerShell parameter with .ps1 file name
Below is a simple script to force either a full or delta sync with Azure AD Connect. What I want to be able to do is call the .ps1 file from a PowerShell command prompt and immediately follow the file name with the -Type parameter so it would look something like this:
> .\Force-ADSync.ps1 -Type Delta
or
> .\Force-ADSync.ps1 -Type Full
Here is the script I'm working with:
> .\Force-ADSync.ps1 -Type Delta
or
> .\Force-ADSync.ps1 -Type Full
Here is the script I'm working with:
function Force-ADSync {
[CmdletBinding()]
Param (
[Parameter(position=0,mandatory=$true)][String]$type
)
switch ($type) {
Delta {
Invoke-Command -ComputerName server.domain.local -ScriptBlock {
Import-Module adsync
Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType Delta
}
}
Full {
Invoke-Command -ComputerName server.domain.local -ScriptBlock {
Import-Module adsync
Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType Initial
}
}
}
}

so if I execute the command from my laptop PowerShell ISE, do I need to change:
Line 7:
or do I need to add this two more lines:
Line 7:
Invoke-Command -ComputerName server.domain.local
or do I need to add this two more lines:
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName server.domain.local
Import-Module ADSync
You can just define it as an argument as well, with a default value of whatever system you use most:
[CmdletBinding()]
Param(
[Parameter(position=0,mandatory=$true)]
[ValidateSet('Delta', 'Full')]
[String]$Type,
[string]$ComputerName = 'server.domain.local'
)
Invoke-Command -ComputerName $ComputerName -ArgumentList $type -ScriptBlock {
Param($Type)
If ($Type -eq 'Full') {$Type = 'Initial'}
Import-Module adsync
Start-ADSyncSyncCycle -PolicyType $Type
}
Wow that is so cool.
Thanks Obda :-)
