Description

The Remove-SPExcelDataConnectionLibrary cmdlet removes a library from the Excel Services Application trusted data connection libraries list. Excel Services Application loads data connection files only if they are stored in a data connection library that is on the trusted data connection libraries list.

Examples

-----------------------EXAMPLE-----------------------------

Get-SPExcelServiceApplication | Get-SPExcelDataConnectionLibrary | Remove-SPExcelDataConnectionLibrary

This example removes all data connection libraries from all Excel Services Application running in the farm.

Connection files are no longer loaded from any libraries. Workbooks that depend on any connection files might not refresh data.

Parameters

-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.
