How to use Windows Powershell in Business Central onprem?

Posted on by Martin Ruhland

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to execute a basic powershell script in BC:

dotnet
{
    assembly("System.Management.Automation")
    {
        type("System.Management.Automation.PowerShell"; "PowerShell") { }
    }
}

pageextension 50164 DotNetItem extends "Item List"
{
    trigger OnOpenPage()
    var
        Shelly: DotNet PowerShell;
    begin
        Shelly := Shelly.Create();
        Shelly.AddScript('C:\Users\MartinRuhland\Documents\Zeug\Testscript.ps1');
        Shelly.Invoke();
    end;
}

The code compiles, but throws a runtime error: "Ambiguous Match found"

The script itself works fine. Am i missing something? Is it even possible?

Regards

Martin
