Set-SPExcelUserDefinedFunction

Sets properties of a user-defined function in Excel Services Application.

Syntax

Set-SPExcelUserDefinedFunction
   [-Identity] <SPExcelUDFPipeBind>
   -ExcelServiceApplication <SPExcelServiceApplicationPipeBind>
   [-Assembly <String>]
   [-AssemblyLocation <AssemblyLocation>]
   [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>]
   [-Confirm]
   [-Description <String>]
   [-Enable]
   [-WhatIf]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Set-SPExcelUserDefinedFunction cmdlet sets properties of a user-defined function assembly. Excel Services Application uses only user-defined functions that have an entry in the user-defined function list. User-defined functions are managed code assemblies that can be called from an Excel Services Application workbook by using standard Excel Services Application formula syntax. The assemblies can perform custom logic or other actions, such as refresh data. Windows PowerShell cmdlets operate on the entries in the user-defined function list and do not operate on the assemblies.

For permissions and the most current information about Windows PowerShell for SharePoint Products, see the online documentation at SharePoint Server Cmdlets.

Examples

--------------EXAMPLE 1--------------

Set-SPExcelUserDefinedFunction -ExcelServiceApplication "My Excel Service" -Identity SampleCompany.SampleApplication.SampleUdf -Description "This is the new description for the sample UDF"

This example changes the description of the user-defined function (UDF) to the UDF SampleCompany.SampleApplication.SampleUdf file for the Excel Services Application Web service application named My Excel Service.

--------------EXAMPLE 2--------------

Get-SPExcelServiceApplication "My Excel Service" | Set-SPExcelUserDefinedFunction -Identity SampleCompany.SampleApplication.SampleUdf -Enable: $false

This example disables the sample UDF SampleCompany.SampleApplication.SampleUdf file from the Excel Services Application named My Excel Service.

Parameters

-Assembly

Specifies the strongly-typed name of the assembly. The name must be unique in the list of user-defined functions and cannot be more than 4096 alphanumeric characters long.

The type must be a string of alphanumeric characters; for example, SampleCompany.SampleApplication.SampleUdf, C:\UDFs\SampleUdf.dll, or \\MyNetworkServer\UDFs\SampleUdf.dll.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Server 2013

-AssemblyLocation

Specifies the location where the assembly is stored.

The type must be one of the following: GAC or LocalFile.

Type:AssemblyLocation
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Server 2013

-AssignmentCollection

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.

Type:SPAssignmentCollection
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:SharePoint Server 2010, SharePoint Server 2013
