By default the function returns any objects with properties that are Equal (-eq) to the value of the parameter. To give you more flexibility you can modify the operator by using -NotEquals [ParameterName[]], -LessThan [ParameterName[]] and so on. Possible operators for all parameters are: -NotEquals -GreaterThan -GreaterThanOrEqual -LessThan -LessThanOrEquals Additional operators for [string] parameters are: -Like (supports * or % as wildcards) -NotLike -BeginsWith -EndsWith -Contains Properties with picklists are: CategoryID Entities that have fields that refer to the base entity of this CmdLet: .INPUTS Nothing. This function only takes parameters. .OUTPUTS [Autotask.Skill[]]. This function outputs the Autotask.Skill that was returned by the API. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -Id 0 Returns the object with Id 0, if any. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -SkillName SomeName Returns the object with SkillName 'SomeName', if any. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -SkillName 'Some Name' Returns the object with SkillName 'Some Name', if any. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -SkillName 'Some Name' -NotEquals SkillName Returns any objects with a SkillName that is NOT equal to 'Some Name', if any. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -SkillName SomeName* -Like SkillName Returns any object with a SkillName that matches the simple pattern 'SomeName*'. Supported wildcards are * and %. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -SkillName SomeName* -NotLike SkillName Returns any object with a SkillName that DOES NOT match the simple pattern 'SomeName*'. Supported wildcards are * and %. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -CategoryID <PickList Label> Returns any Skills with property CategoryID equal to the <PickList Label>. '-PickList' is any parameter on . .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -CategoryID <PickList Label> -NotEquals CategoryID Returns any Skills with property CategoryID NOT equal to the <PickList Label>. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -CategoryID <PickList Label1>, <PickList Label2> Returns any Skills with property CategoryID equal to EITHER <PickList Label1> OR <PickList Label2>. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -CategoryID <PickList Label1>, <PickList Label2> -NotEquals CategoryID Returns any Skills with property CategoryID NOT equal to NEITHER <PickList Label1> NOR <PickList Label2>. .EXAMPLE Get-AtwsSkill -Id 1234 -SkillName SomeName* -CategoryID <PickList Label1>, <PickList Label2> -Like SkillName -NotEquals CategoryID -GreaterThan Id An example of a more complex query. This command returns any Skills with Id GREATER THAN 1234, a SkillName that matches the simple pattern SomeName* AND that has a CategoryID that is NOT equal to NEITHER <PickList Label1> NOR <PickList Label2>. #> [CmdLetBinding(SupportsShouldProcess = $true, DefaultParameterSetName='Filter', ConfirmImpact='None')] Param ( # A filter that limits the number of objects that is returned from the API [Parameter( Mandatory = $true, ValueFromRemainingArguments = $true, ParametersetName = 'Filter' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [string[]] $Filter, # Follow this external ID and return any external objects [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'Filter' )] [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [Alias('GetRef')] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [string] $GetReferenceEntityById, # Return all objects in one query [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'Get_all' )] [switch] $All, # Active [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [Nullable[boolean][]] $Active, # Category ID [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [ArgumentCompleter({ param($Cmd, $Param, $Word, $Ast, $FakeBound) Get-AtwsPicklistValue -Entity Skill -FieldName CategoryID -Label })] [ValidateScript({ $set = Get-AtwsPicklistValue -Entity Skill -FieldName CategoryID -Label if ($_ -in $set) { return $true} else { Write-Warning ('{0} is not one of {1}' -f $_, ($set -join ', ')) Return $false } })] [string[]] $CategoryID, # Description [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateLength(0,2000)] [string[]] $Description, # Skill ID [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [Nullable[long][]] $id, # Name [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [ValidateLength(0,100)] [string[]] $Name, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Description', 'Active', 'id', 'CategoryID', 'Name')] [string[]] $NotEquals, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Description', 'Active', 'id', 'CategoryID', 'Name')] [string[]] $IsNull, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Description', 'Active', 'id', 'CategoryID', 'Name')] [string[]] $IsNotNull, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('id', 'Name', 'CategoryID', 'Description')] [string[]] $GreaterThan, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('id', 'Name', 'CategoryID', 'Description')] [string[]] $GreaterThanOrEquals, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('id', 'Name', 'CategoryID', 'Description')] [string[]] $LessThan, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('id', 'Name', 'CategoryID', 'Description')] [string[]] $LessThanOrEquals, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Name', 'Description')] [string[]] $Like, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Name', 'Description')] [string[]] $NotLike, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Name', 'Description')] [string[]] $BeginsWith, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Name', 'Description')] [string[]] $EndsWith, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [ValidateSet('Name', 'Description')] [string[]] $Contains, [Parameter( ParametersetName = 'By_parameters' )] [string[]] $IsThisDay ) begin { $entityName = 'Skill' # Enable modern -Debug behavior if ($PSCmdlet.MyInvocation.BoundParameters['Debug'].IsPresent) { $DebugPreference = 'Continue' } else { # Respect configured preference $DebugPreference = $Script:Atws.Configuration.DebugPref } Write-Debug ('{0}: Begin of function' -F $MyInvocation.MyCommand.Name) if (!($PSCmdlet.MyInvocation.BoundParameters['Verbose'].IsPresent)) { # No local override of central preference.
