We are doing an extensive acceptance testing against SharePoint Online by using PowerSlim (PowerShell).
Unfortunately sometimes our automated tests are blocked by popup below:
As we truly believe that our DNS is not spoiled an we know exactly what we are looking for (pre-created data) – this verification doesn’t make any sense for us.
So we decided to disable it. I was not able to find the solution how to do this trough Windows Registry. Below is how you can do this trough Internet Explorer:

#SharePoint 2013 #PowerShell: How to get user permissions report
function Get-SPPermissionsReport($web, $recursive) { $web | Get-SPUser | % { New-Object PSObject -Property @{ UserLogin = $_.UserLogin 'Roles given explicitly' = $_.Roles 'Roles given via groups' = $_.Groups | %{$_.Roles} Groups = $_.Groups Url = $web.Url } } if($recursive) { $web.Webs | % { Get-SPPermissionsReport $_ $recursive } } } $web = Get-SPWeb http://yoursharepoint/sites/department Get-SPPermissionsReport $web $true | Sort-Object UserLogin | Out-GridView
Then you can apply an additional filter by user or url right in the GridView.
You can add an additional matching criteria in the GridView: e.g. match by Role/Group name
PowerShell; SharePoint 2010: Set Alternate Access Mapping
I need to set Alternate Access Mapping remotely as part of my automation. I can’t find how to specify PowerShell version for Invoke-Command CMDlet. So I decided to use this workaround:
Invoke-Command -computer sp2010.vlasenko.org -script { $command = "Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell; New-SPAlternateURL 'http://vlasenko.nmsp.org' -Zone 'Internet' -WebApplication 'SharePoint - 80'" PowerShell -v 2 -Command "& { $command }" }
Bind SharePoint event receiver by PowerShell
$list = (get-spweb http://sharepoint/sites/test).lists['somelist'] $def = $list.EventReceivers.Add() $def.Assembly = "MyReceiverAssembly, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=Neutral,PublicKeyToken=a00000000a000ce0" $def.Class = "MyReceiverAssembly.MyReceiverClass" $def.Type = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPEventReceiverType]::ItemAdded $def.Name = "My ItemAdded Event Receiver"; $def.Synchronization = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPEventReceiverSynchronization]::Synchronous $def.Update()
#PowerShell, #SharePoint: Enable DocumentSet content type
Enable-SPFeature -Identity DocumentSet -url http://YourSharepointServer
#PowerShell #SCOM Preserve/Update Created By/Modified By
This example shows how to use SharePoint Client Object API through PowerShell to create a list item with specific Author and Editor.
Useful if you want to preserve identities while moving the SharePoint items.
$siteUrl = "http://mysite" $listTitle = "My List" $user = "9;#domain\user" cd "$installFolder" Add-Type -Path .<PATH>\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll $ctx = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($siteUrl) $web = $ctx.Web $list = $web.Lists.GetByTitle($listTitle) $itemInfo = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ListItemCreationInformation $item = $list.AddItem($itemInfo) $item['Title'] = "Hello World" $item['Author'] = $user $item['Editor'] = $user $item.Update() $ctx.ExecuteQuery()
The tricky part here is the $user value. It should be in the form of: {user Id in SharePoint};#{user Name}
You can automate the process of getting the user Id number by Name.
SharePoint 2013 on Windows Azure VM five times more expensive than on AWS instance
Something wrong with Windows Azure! I decided to run a SharePoint 2013 on Windows Azure. Just to give Azure a chance;) But! What is going on there? Does someone really use it?
SharePoint 2013 requires minimum 8GB of RAM.
AWS $0.066 |

Azure $0.32 |
