PowerShell: Google (GAM) Series

Over the coming weeks I will post some scripts I have created out of need at my current employer for connecting and managing Google Suite for Education.

Invoke-O365AzureSync.ps1

Today's script is for those who manage AzureSync and looking for a quick way to kick off Full or Delta syncs without having to RDP to the server and execute script.

Pretty straight forward script and lots of comments / verbose messages.  Unless requested will not be providing a code break out post.

Remove-O365PSSession.ps1

Today's script does some basic house cleaning when closing Office 365 Sessions.

New-O365PSSession.ps1

Today's script can be used with previous Set-O365EncryptedCredentials or standalone.

Scope of script is following:

  • Checks for stale O365 Sessions and closes them
  • Will use saved credentials (Set-O365EncryptedCredentials.PS1) or prompt for user to provide
  • Will fail if MSOnline Module not installed
  • Will Skip SharePoint / Skype if required modules not installed
Due to length of script unless requested will not be doing code break down.

Install-O365Modules.ps1

Today's post is aimed at setting up your system to connect to all the components of O365.

I feel this script is pretty straight forward and self explaining. If receive requests will come back and do a more in depth post on what is happening.

This section of code contains needed information to respond to Get-Help requests.  To view complete help execute string below:
1
Get-Help Set-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Full
It covers what the script does, provides details of parameters and even examples of how to execute the script. It is good practice to complete this one for yourself and future staff but also for contributing to the PowerShell community.

Param
(
    [String]
    $Path = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("LocalApplicationData")
)
This section defines the parameters for the script.

I utilize a single string to define a variable $Path. I further define a default value for the variable, happens to be the executing account's LocalApplcationData folder.
One could override the default by defining the parameter when executing the script like line 1:
1

4
Set-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Path "\\server\share\folder

[String]
$Path = "\\Server\share\folder"
Or by updating the default value in the script like lines 3-4.

Get-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1

Today's post I will be explaining a script the builds on last weeks script Set-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1.

The purpose of Get-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 is to validate the files created in Set-O365EcryptedCredentials.ps1. It can be run in two modes: Test or Pass-Thru.
  • Test Mode will provide feedback on username and if able to load password back into a secure string.
  • Pass-Thru (Default) will pass the loaded credentials back to requesting script.  
    • This will be used in later scripts.

This section of code contains needed information to respond to Get-Help requests.  To view complete help execute string below:

1
Get-Help Get-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Full
It covers what the script does, provides details of parameters and even examples of how to execute the script. It is good practice to complete this one for yourself and future staff but also for contributing to the PowerShell community.

[Cmdletbinding()]
Param
(
    [switch]
    $Test,
    [String]
    $Path = [Environment]::GetFolderPath("LocalApplicationData")
)
This section defines the parameters for the script.
For this script I utilize two (2) parameters one being a switch type and other a string type.

First, lets cover the switch.  In this script I take advantage of the default value of a switch being $false when not defined.
With that in mind the below statement creates a variable $Test with a value of $false.  This will be used later in the script's logic to skip sections.
1
2
[Switch]
$Test
When a switch parameter is defined in script like following it receives a value of $true:
1
Get-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Test

Next, I utilize a single string to define a variable $Path. I further define a default value for the variable, happens to be the executing account's LocalApplcationData folder.
One could override the default by defining the parameter when executing the script like line 1:
1
2
3
4
Set-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Path "\\server\share\folder

[String]
$Path = "\\Server\share\folder"
Or by updating the default value in the script like lines 3-4:

  • Line 3  is using several logic tests an If statement along with Test-Path, and a modifer the exclamation mark (!).
    • Let's check out Test-Path first:
      • Checks to determine if defined path or file does exists to return $true else it returns $false
    • Next we have the exclamation mark (!):
      • This is a logic operator that changes the test to opposite (can also be represented as "-not")
      • In script changes Test-Path logic above to now read:
        • Checks to determine if defined path or file does not exists to return $true else it returns $false
    • Now let's pull it all together in our Ifstatement:
      1
      IF (!(Test-Path -Path "$Path\O365user.txt"))
      
      • In this scenario our logic test is checking that the defined file "O365user.txt" does not exist.  If $true will execute following code inside{}otherwise execute code within else's {}
  • Line 4-8 only execute when If statements does not find defined file.

  • Line 2 is used for debugging to see what the script is doing.  Verbose messages will only be displayed when script is executed with the Verbose parameter, like such:
  • 1
    Get-O365EncryptedCredentials.ps1 -Verbose
    
  • Line 3  is using several logic tests an If statement along with Test-Path, and a modifer the exclamation mark (!).
    • Let's check out Test-Path first:
      • Checks to determine if defined path or file does exists to return $true else it returns $false
    • Next we have the exclamation mark (!):
      • This is a logic operator that changes the test to opposite (can also be represented as "-not")
      • In script changes Test-Path logic above to now read:
        • Checks to determine if defined path or file does not exists to return $true else it returns $false
    • Now let's pull it all together in our If statement:
      1
      IF (!(Test-Path -Path "$Path\O365cred.txt"))
      • In this scenario our logic test is checking that the defined file "O365cred.txt" does not exist.  If $true will execute following code inside{}otherwise execute code within else's {}
  • Line 4-8 only execute when If statements does not find defined file.
    • Line 4 Contains the opening bracket ( { ) for If is scriptblock
    • Line 5
      • Write-Host will print the text with quotes (" ") to screen for user to read.  
        1
        Write-Host -ForegroundColor Red "No password file found" 
        • The parameter -foreground allows color to be defined, in this case the color is red.
    • Line 6
      • Write-Error prints read error message to screen
      • 1
        Write-Error -Message "No password file found"
        
    • Line 7
      • Exit quits the execution of script
    • Line 8 Contains the closing bracket ( } ) for If is scriptblock
  • Line 9 Declares our else statement, used with If to provide a defined set of code for when If returns as $false.
  • Lines 10-13 only executes when If statement does find the defined file.
    • Line 10 Contains the opening bracket ( { ) for else is scriptblock
    • Line 11 
      • Write-Host will print the text with quotes (" ") to screen for user to read.  
        1
        Write-Host -ForegroundColor Green "Password File found"
        
        • The parameter -foreground allows color to be defined, in this case as color green
    • Line 12 Introduces a new cmdlet "ConvertTo-SecureString" so lets walk through this line.
      1
      $Pass = Get-Content "$Path\O365cred.txt" | ConvertTo-SecureString
      
      • As used previously Get-Content reads lines from files (in this case O365cred.txt)
      • Next we use pipeline ( | ) to feed output of Get-Content to ConvertTo-SecureString
      • ConvertTo-SecureString converts the encrypted standard strings from Get-Content to a secure strings
      • Lastly we use the assignment operator equals (=) to assign the secure string value to our variable $Pass
    • Line 13 Contains the closing bracket ( } ) for If is scriptblock

  • Line 3 Uses New-Object to make PSCredential from the provided username and password and then save to $Cred variable
    • -typename defines the type of object to be created
      • In this case we are defining System.Management.Automation.PSCredential
    • -arguementlist list of items to be used in creation of new object
      • In this case we use previous defined variables: $AdminName and $Pass
    • assignment operator equals (=) to assign the PSCredential value to our variable $Cred
