Set-VmsViewGroup¶
SYNOPSIS¶
Sets properties of an existing XProtect Smart Client view group.
SYNTAX¶
Set-VmsViewGroup [-ViewGroup] <ViewGroup> [[-Name] <String>] [[-Description] <String>] [-PassThru] [-WhatIf]
[-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION¶
This command is used to update the name or description of any top-level or child view group. Note that the description is currently only displayed in Management Client for top-level view groups. The descriptions of nested child view groups are not used by XProtect Smart Client.
REQUIREMENTS
- Requires VMS connection and will attempt to connect automatically
- Requires VMS version 21.1
EXAMPLES¶
Example 1¶
Connect-ManagementServer -ShowDialog -AcceptEula
$viewGroup = New-VmsViewGroup -Name 'MilestonePSTools Example' -Force
$viewGroup | Set-VmsViewGroup -Name 'Example 1' -PassThru
$viewGroup | Remove-VmsViewGroup
After ensuring there is an open connection to the Management Server, we create a view group to test with. On the third line, the view group is renamed and thanks to the -PassThru switch, we see the updated view group properties in the terminal.
Finally, we clean up by removing the newly created view group.
