Function Add-SPRListItem { <# .SYNOPSIS Adds items to a SharePoint list. .DESCRIPTION Adds items to a SharePoint list. .PARAMETER List The human readable list name. So 'My List' as opposed to 'MyList', unless you named it MyList. .PARAMETER Web The human readable web name. So 'My Web' as opposed to 'MyWeb', unless you named it MyWeb. .PARAMETER Site The address to the site collection. You can also pass a hostname and it'll figure it out. Don't want to specify the Site or Credential every time? Use Connect-SPRSite to create a reusable connection. See Get-Help Connect-SPRsite for more information. .PARAMETER Credential Provide alternative credentials to the site collection. Otherwise, it will use default credentials. .PARAMETER AutoCreateList If a Sharepoint list does not exist, one will be created based off of the guessed column types. .PARAMETER InputObject Allows piping from Get-SPRList .PARAMETER Quiet Do not output new item. Makes imports faster; useful for automated imports. .PARAMETER AsUser Add the item as a specific user. .PARAMETER LogToList You can log imports and export results to a list. Note this has to be a list from Get-SPRList. .PARAMETER DataTypeMap Helps create accurate datatypes when used with -AutoCreateList .PARAMETER WhatIf If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run. .PARAMETER Confirm If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state. .PARAMETER EnableException By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message. This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting. Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch. .EXAMPLE $csv = Import-Csv -Path C:\temp\listitems.csv Add-SPRListItem -Site intranet.ad.local -List 'My List' -InputObject $mycsv Adds data from listitems.csv into the My List SharePoint list, so long as there are matching columns. .EXAMPLE Import-Csv -Path C:\temp\listitems.csv | Add-SPRListItem -Site intranet.ad.local -List 'My List' Adds data from listitems.csv into the My List SharePoint list, so long as there are matching columns. .EXAMPLE $object = @() $object += [pscustomobject]@{ Title = 'Hello'; TestColumn = 'Sample Data'; } $object += [pscustomobject]@{ Title = 'Hello2'; TestColumn = 'Sample Data2'; } $object += [pscustomobject]@{ Title = 'Hello3'; TestColumn = 'Sample Data3'; } Add-SPRListItem -Site intranet.ad.local -List 'My List' -InputObject $object Adds data from a custom object $object into the My List SharePoint list, so long as there are matching columns (Title and TestColumn). #> [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess)] param ( [Parameter(Position = 0, HelpMessage = "Human-readble SharePoint list name")] [string]$List, [Parameter(Position = 1, HelpMessage = "Human-readble SharePoint web name")] [string]$Web, [Parameter(Position = 2, HelpMessage = "SharePoint Site Collection")] [string]$Site, [PSCredential]$Credential, [parameter(ValueFromPipeline)] [object[]]$InputObject, [switch]$AutoCreateList, [switch]$Quiet, [string]$AsUser, [object]$DataTypeMap, [Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.List]$LogToList, [switch]$EnableException ) begin { $addcount = 0 $start = Get-Date if ($AsUser) { Write-PSFMessage -Level Output -Message "Validating user.
