How to Show Version History in SharePoint 2013 using PowerShell

Hello SharePoint Pals,

 

Here is an Interesting piece of requirement  that I would like to share with you all.  Suddenly one of my customers had come up with a requirement , that he would like to know how frequent the SharePoint doucment library is modified and usage analytics of the documents in a document library. The simple and efficient method that I follow is to get Version History for all the documents in a SharePoint Library using PowerShell Commands.

 

Here is the piece of code provided below.

 

$Site = Get-SPSite http://mysite/Sample

$Webs = $Site.AllWebs

foreach ($Web in $Webs)
{
foreach ($List in $web.Lists)
{
//Check if the Versioning is enabled or not.

if($List.EnableVersioning)
{
$Item=$List.Items[0]
foreach($Version in $Item.Versions)
{
Write-Host "Documen Library Name:" $List.Title "-" "Document Name:" $Item.Title $Version.VersionLabel
}
}
}
}
$Web.Dispose()
$Site.Dispose()

Happy SharePointing :-)
