Now the integration of this PowerShell script into a UiPath sequence. Here is one way to read the PowerShell script as text file into a UiPath variable. This variable is the command text for the UiPath activity Invoke PowerShell. It is necessary to set the IsScript flag of the PowerShell Invoke activity in this case. The parameter for the script must be defined also as parameter for the activity, with the same name. Set the TypeArgument property to string and the result of the script will be a collection of strings too, which are stored in the variable Result. With the Write Line activity this result is shown in the output window of UiPath. On this way it is possible to combine PowerShell in UiPath seamlessly and to communicate directly from UiPath with the PowerShell script and vice versa.
#-Begin----------------------------------------------------------------- "$($PSVersionTable.PSVersion) - $env:PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE" #-End-------------------------------------------------------------------The path to the PowerShell script is set to Environment.CurrentDirectory, this is the path to the current UiPath project directory. On this way you can store the script in same directory and with the publishing it is part of the package.
