Prerequisites

Note: powerJobs Processor version 25.0 or greater is required for these samples.

• powerJobs Processor installed on the Autodesk Vault Job Processor machine

Debugging

To run a script in a code editor such as Windows PowerShell ISE or Visual Studio Code instead of powerJobs, add the following code to the .ps1 script:

if (-not $IAmRunningInJobProcessor) {
    Import-Module powerJobs
    Open-VaultConnection -Server "localhost" -Vault "Vault" -User "Administrator" -Password ""
    $file = Get-VaultFile -Properties @{Name="Scissors.idw"}
}

This logs in to Vault and uses the file Scissors.idw if the script is executed by anything other than powerJobs.
