SharePoint (and Project Server) Shenanigans

I am a Project Server and SharePoint consultant but my main focus currently is around Project Server. I have been working with Project Server for nearly five years since 2007 for a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner in the UK, I have also been awared with the Microsoft Community Contributor Award 2011. I am also a certified Prince2 Practitioner. This article has been cross posted from pwmather.wordpress.com (original article)

This is a supporting blog post for an example PowerShell script I quickly wrote for Microsoft’s Office 365 SharePoint Online. It was created after a query was posted on the Project Online TechNet forums asking how to easily check what sub sites were being used in PWA.

The code sample can be downloaded from here: http://bit.ly/2wltpK7

To get the script to work, there will need to be some environment variables set and a DLL available, these are detailed below.

Update the environment details:

Add the SharePoint Online / PWA URL, username and password for an account that is a site collection admin on the target site collection.

To get the script to work you will need to reference the DLL as seen in the image below:

This can be installed from the SharePoint Online Client components / management shell. I used the dll from the SharePoint Online Management Shell in this example.

Below you can see the output from the PowerShell ISE when running against my test SharePoint / Project Online site collection:

There are probably easier ways to view this information but I thought I would just try with a simple PowerShell script.
