Smart Way To Call Another Power Shell Script Inside A Script

This post shows a smart way to call another Power Shell script inside a script.

Introduction 

 

Hi guys, let's explore a smart way to call another Power Shell script inside a script.

 

Let my given script be a test.ps1 which only does some write-host that prints some statement.

 

Now I'm adding one more line that calls a PowerShell script to execute.

 

Write-Host "Hello World!";

 

Write-Host "Invoking or Calling another PnP PS Script";

 

Powershell .\CreateFolder_PnP

 

 

 

 

 

 

The above CreateFolder_PnP script is shown below:

#Config Variables
$SharePointSiteURL = "#######################"
$FolderName = "Extra Folderss"
$RelativeURL = "/Reports Archive"
#Relative URL of the Parent Folder
Try {
    #Connect to PnP Online
    # Connect - PnPOnline - Url $SharePointSiteURL - CurrentCredentials
    Connect - PnPOnline - Url $SharePointSiteURL - UseWebLogin
    # sharepoint online create folder powershell
    Add - PnPFolder - Name $FolderName - Folder $RelativeURL - ErrorAction Stop
    Write - host - f Green "New Folder '$FolderName' Added!"
} catch {
    write - host "Error: $($_.Exception.Message)" - foregroundcolor Red
}

Conclusion

 

We can automate the above process to call any kind of verified, tested PS scripts from a master PS script file and run it across a CMD, Windows ISE, PowerShellManagement Shell Tool, or Azure PS Runbook, and implement scheduled timer automated web jobs also established using the above simple process.

 

Sharing is Caring!
