Get-BitsTransfer

  • Reference
Module:
BitsTransfer

Retrieves the associated BitsJob object for an existing Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) transfer job.

Syntax

Get-BitsTransfer
   [[-Name] <String[]>]
   [-AllUsers]
   [<CommonParameters>]
Get-BitsTransfer
   [-JobId] <Guid[]>
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-BitsTransfer cmdlet retrieves a set of BITS transfer jobs. By default, the cmdlet returns the jobs that are owned by the current user. However, if you have administrative credentials, you can specify the AllUsers parameter so that the command returns jobs that are owned by all users. The returned jobs can be filtered by name or ID. The jobs are represented by BitsJob objects.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>Get-BitsTransfer
JobId                   DisplayName             TransferType            JobState                OwnerAccount

This command returns all the BitsJob objects that are owned by the current user.

EXAMPLE 2

PS C:\>Get-BitsTransfer -JobId C0DD3D8C-C3A2-4562-80B19224879C
JobId                   DisplayName             TransferType            JobState                OwnerAccount
-----                   -----------             ------------            --------                ------------
c0dd3d8c-c3a2-4562-8... TestJob1                Download                Transferred             DOMAIN01\user01

This command returns the BitsJob object that is identified by the specified job ID.

EXAMPLE 3

PS C:\>Get-BitsTransfer -AllUsers -Name *Microsoft*, *Windows*
JobId                   DisplayName             TransferType            JobState                OwnerAccount
-----                   -----------             ------------            --------                ------------
07acbe90-7d25-4d05-a... MicrosoftTest           Download                Suspended               DOMAIN01\user01
c0dd3d8c-c3a2-4562-8... WindowsTest             Download                Transferred             DOMAIN01\user02

This command returns all the BitsJob objects, owned by all users, where the DisplayName property of the BitsJob object contains either "Microsoft" or "Windows". If the user does not have administrative credentials, this command returns an error because it uses the AllUsers parameter.

EXAMPLE 4

C:\PS>Get-BitsTransfer -Name testjob1
JobId                   DisplayName             TransferType            JobState                OwnerAccount
-----                   -----------             ------------            --------                ------------
c0dd3d8c-c3a2-4562-8... TestJob1                Download                Transferred             DOMAIN01\user01

This command returns the BitsJob object that is identified by the specified display name.

Parameters

-AllUsers

Returns BITS transfer jobs that are owned by all users. If this parameter is not specified, only jobs that are owned by the current user are returned. This parameter requires administrative credentials.

Type:SwitchParameter
Aliases:all
Position:2
Default value:Current
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-JobId

Filters the returned BITS jobs by job ID. Only the BITS jobs that include a job ID in this array are returned. If BitsJob objects are piped to this cmdlet, their job IDs are used as the values of this parameter.

Type:Guid[]
Aliases:id
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Name

Filters the returned BITS jobs based on job name. Only BITS jobs with job names that match a name in this array are returned. You can use standard wildcard characters such as the asterisk (*) and the question mark (?). Or, you can use a range operator such as"[a-r]".

For example, you can use any of the following commands:

Get-BitsTransfer -Name "BITS*"

Get-BitsTransfer -Name "BITS Transfe?"

Get-BitsTransfer -Name "BITS Transfe\[a-r\]"

A combination of the wildcard character and range operators is also possible.

Type:String[]
Aliases:n
Position:1
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

Inputs

Microsoft.BackgroundIntelligentTransfer.Management.BitsJob[]

This cmdlet accepts one or more BitsJob objects as input that populates the JobId parameter (based on the property name).

Outputs

Microsoft.BackgroundIntelligentTransfer.Management.BitsJob[]

This cmdlet generates the BitsJob objects that are associated with the retrieved BITS transfer jobs.
