SYNTAX

Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh [[-ProjectId] <Int32>] [[-BearerToken] <String>] [-SourceEnvironmentId] <String>

DESCRIPTION

Start a database refresh between 2 environments from a LCS project

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh -ProjectId 123456789 -SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae" -TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e" -BearerToken "JldjfafLJdfjlfsalfd..." -LcsApiUri "https://lcsapi.lcs.dynamics.com"

This will start the database refresh between the Source and Target environments. The LCS project is identified by the ProjectId 123456789, which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The source environment is identified by the SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The target environment is identified by the TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The request will authenticate with the BearerToken "JldjfafLJdfjlfsalfd...". The http request will be going to the LcsApiUri "https://lcsapi.lcs.dynamics.com" (NON-EUROPE).

EXAMPLE 2

Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh -SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae" -TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e"

This will start the database refresh between the Source and Target environments. The source environment is identified by the SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The target environment is identified by the TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e", which can be obtained in the LCS portal.

All default values will come from the configuration available from Get-D365LcsApiConfig.

The default values can be configured using Set-D365LcsApiConfig.

EXAMPLE 3

$databaseRefresh = Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh -SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae" -TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e" -SkipInitialStatusFetch

PS C:\> $databaseRefresh | Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus -EnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e9" -SleepInSeconds 60

This will start the database refresh between the Source and Target environments. The source environment is identified by the SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The target environment is identified by the TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. It will skip the first database refesh status fetch and only output the details from starting the refresh.

The output from Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh is stored in the $databaseRefresh. This will enable you to pass the $databaseRefresh variable to other cmdlets which should make things easier for you.

Will pipe the $databaseRefresh variable to the Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus cmdlet and get the status from the database refresh job.

All default values will come from the configuration available from Get-D365LcsApiConfig.

The default values can be configured using Set-D365LcsApiConfig.

EXAMPLE 4

Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh -SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae" -TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e" -SkipInitialStatusFetch

This will start the database refresh between the Source and Target environments. The source environment is identified by the SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The target environment is identified by the TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. It will skip the first database refesh status fetch and only output the details from starting the refresh.

All default values will come from the configuration available from Get-D365LcsApiConfig.

The default values can be configured using Set-D365LcsApiConfig.

EXAMPLE 5

Invoke-D365LcsDatabaseRefresh -SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae" -TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e" -RetryTimeout "00:01:00"

This will start the database refresh between the Source and Target environments, and allow for the cmdlet to retry for no more than 1 minute. The source environment is identified by the SourceEnvironmentId "958ae597-f089-4811-abbd-c1190917eaae", which can be obtained in the LCS portal. The target environment is identified by the TargetEnvironmentId "13cc7700-c13b-4ea3-81cd-2d26fa72ec5e", which can be obtained in the LCS portal.

All default values will come from the configuration available from Get-D365LcsApiConfig.

The default values can be configured using Set-D365LcsApiConfig.

Accept wildcard characters: False

-SkipInitialStatusFetch

Instruct the cmdlet to skip the first fetch of the database refresh status

Useful when you have a large script that handles this status validation and you don't want to spend time with this cmdlet

Default output from this cmdlet is 2 (two) different objects. The first object is the response object for starting the refresh operation. The second object is the response object from fetching the status of the refresh operation.

Setting this parameter (activate it), will affect the number of output objects. If you skip, only the first response object outputted.

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-FailOnErrorMessage

Instruct the cmdlet to write logging information to the console, if there is an error message in the response from the LCS endpoint

Used in combination with either Enable-D365Exception cmdlet, or the -EnableException directly on this cmdlet, it will throw an exception and break/stop execution of the script This allows you to implement custom retry / error handling logic

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-RetryTimeout

The retry timeout, before the cmdlet should quit retrying based on the 429 status code

Needs to be provided in the timspan notation: "hh:mm:ss"

hh is the number of hours, numerical notation only mm is the number of minutes ss is the numbers of seconds

Each section of the timeout has to valid, e.g. hh can maximum be 23 mm can maximum be 59 ss can maximum be 59

Not setting this parameter will result in the cmdlet to try for ever to handle the 429 push back from the endpoint

Type: TimeSpan
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: 6
Default value: 00:00:00
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-EnableException

This parameters disables user-friendly warnings and enables the throwing of exceptions This is less user friendly, but allows catching exceptions in calling scripts

Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

CommonParameters

This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutVariable, -OutBuffer, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable. For more information, see about_CommonParameters.

INPUTS

OUTPUTS

NOTES

The ActivityId property is a custom property that ISN'T part of the response from the LCS API. The ActivityId is always the same as the OperationActivityId (original LCS property). The EnvironmentId property is a custom property that ISN'T part of the response from the LCS API. The EnvironmentId is always the same as the SourceEnvironmentId parameter you have supplied to this cmdlet.

Default output from this cmdlet is 2 (two) different objects. The first object is the response object for starting the refresh operation. The second object is the response object from fetching the status of the refresh operation.

Setting the SkipInitialStatusFetch parameter (activate it), will affect the number of output objects. If you skip, only the first response object outputted.

Running with the default (SkipInitialStatusFetch NOT being set), will instruct the cmdlet to call the Get-D365LcsDatabaseOperationStatus cmdlet. This will output a second object, with other properties than the first object outputted.
