.SYNOPSIS Extract details from a User Interface Security file .DESCRIPTION Extracts and partitions the security details from an User Interface Security file into the same structure as AOT security files .PARAMETER FilePath Path to the User Interface Security XML file you want to work against .PARAMETER OutputDirectory Path to the folder where the cmdlet will output and structure the details from the file. The cmdlet will create a sub folder named like the input file. Default value is: "C:\temp\d365fo.tools\security-extraction" .EXAMPLE Export-D365SecurityDetails -FilePath C:\temp\d365fo.tools\SecurityDatabaseCustomizations.xml This will grab all the details inside the "C:\temp\d365fo.tools\SecurityDatabaseCustomizations.xml" file and extract that into the default path "C:\temp\d365fo.tools\security-extraction" .NOTES Author: Mötz Jensen (@splaxi) The work and design of this cmdlet is based on the findings by Alex Meyer (@alexmeyer_ITGuy). He wrote about his findings on his blog: https://alexdmeyer.com/2018/09/26/converting-d365fo-user-interface-security-customizations-export-to-aot-security-xml-files/ He published a github repository: https://github.com/ameyer505/D365FOSecurityConverter All credits goes to Alex Meyer #> function Export-D365SecurityDetails { [CmdletBinding()] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)] [Alias('Path')] [string]$FilePath, [Parameter(Mandatory = $false)] [Alias('Output')] [string]$OutputDirectory = "C:\temp\d365fo.tools\security-extraction" ) begin { } process { if (-not (Test-PathExists -Path $FilePath -Type Leaf)) { return } if (-not (Test-PathExists -Path $OutputDirectory -Type Container)) { return } [xml] $xdoc = Get-Content $FilePath $fileName = [System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($FilePath) $OutputDirectory = Join-Path $OutputDirectory $fileName Write-PSFMessage -Level Verbose -Message "Creating the output directory for the extraction" -Target $OutputDirectory $null = New-Item -Path $OutputDirectory -ItemType Directory -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue Write-PSFMessage -Level Verbose -Message "Getting all the security objects." $secObjects = $xdoc.SelectNodes("/*/*/*/*/*[starts-with(name(),'AxSec')]") if ($secObjects.Count -gt 0) { Write-PSFMessage -Level Verbose -Message "Looping through all the security objects we found" foreach ( $secObject in $secObjects) { $secPath = Join-Path $OutputDirectory $secObject.LocalName $null = New-Item -Path $secPath -ItemType Directory -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue $secObjectName = $secObject.Name if (-not ([string]::IsNullOrEmpty($secObjectName))) { $filePathOut = Join-Path $secPath $secObjectName $filePathOut += ".xml" Write-PSFMessage -Level Verbose -Message "Generating the output file: $filePathOut" -Target $filePathOut $secObject.OuterXml | Out-File $filePathOut } } } } end { } } |
