SYNTAX

Export-EvergreenApp [-InputObject] <Array> -Path <FileInfo> [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Export application details gathered by Get-EvergreenApp to an external JSON file. This function reads any existing JSON for that application, adds the new version content, sorts for unique versions, then outputs the new content back to the target JSON file.

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

$OneDrive = Get-EvergreenApp -Name "MicrosoftOneDrive"
Save-EvergreenApp -InputObject $OneDrive -Path "C:\Evergreen\OneDrive"
Export-EvergreenApp -InputObject $OneDrive -Path "C:\Evergreen\OneDrive\MicrosoftOneDrive.json"

Description: Get-EvergreenApp returns version information for MicrosoftOneDrive. Save-EvergreenApp is then used to save the returned installers to C:\Evergreen\OneDrive. Version information is then saved to C:\Evergreen\OneDrive\MicrosoftOneDrive.json with Export-EvergreenApp. If version information is already stored in the target file, the additional version information is saved to the same file.
