Combining multiple commands to an appending output.

Hello all,

I am somewhat new to PowerShell and only use it to grab some details from time to time. I have been trying to put something together to grab information in a local device log for reference hoping it to be beneficial for me. I have basically 4 commands I would like to add as a login script to run at login and append information into a cvs file on the local C:\temp drive. The commands are as follows:

gwmi win32_bios

(Get-WmiObject -Class:Win32_ComputerSystem) .Model

Get-Date -Format g

Get-WmiObject -ComputerName . -Class Win32_ComputerSystem | Select Username

Is there an easy way to do this? I have been able to get it to work one command at a time, and piping them doesn't seem to work.. So as I work my way through this I thought I would throw it out here for any advice.

Thanks TJ

Use Out-File.

help Export-Csv -online

You will need to create a custom object that captures the information you want.

Search for "powershell custom objects"

Hi,

Store the output into a variable and work with it.

$biosData = gwmi win32_bios $model = (Get-WmiObject -Class:Win32_ComputerSystem).Model #use the variables $biosData | Export-CSV $biosData | foreach { $_ }
I'd suggest to learn some basic PowerShell scripting: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/heyscriptingguy/2015/01/04/weekend-scripter-the-best-ways-to-learn-powershell/
