    Hi guys

    I've decided to learn Powershell for an ETL workflow but I'm having trouble with the basics.

    I receive the below error when attempting to Invoke-WebRequest:

    [ERROR] Invoke-WebRequest : The remote name could not be resolved: 'logon'

    Below is my script:

    $sTarget = "http://www.lcbo.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/sod/"
$sLogin = "redacted"
$sPassword = "redacted"

function Main()
{
	Write-Host "Logging into $sTarget"

	$htmlTargetLogin = Invoke-WebRequest $sTarget -SessionVariable session
	$htmlTargetLogin.Forms[0].fields["logonId"] = $sLogin
	$htmlTargetLogin.Forms[0].fields["logonPassword"] = $sPassword
    
	$htmlTargetMain = Invoke-WebRequest $htmlTargetLogin.Forms[0].Action -WebSession $session -Body $htmlTargetLogin -Method Post

	return
}

Main

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!
    Simon

    I see no Workflow here.  It is just a function.

    The second call should look like this:

    Invoke-WebRequest $starget -WebSession $session -Body $htmlTargetLogin -Method Post

    The first call creates the SessionVariable  Further calls apply the session variable with WebSession.
