Invoke-pmScript

Remarks

Similar to Get-pmScript, this cmdlet will search for a script from PowerMapi.com. This cmdlet however, upon finding the requested script, will invoke the script directly without having to save the script locally.

This cmdlet implements the ShouldProcess attribute and the ConfirmImpact attribute is set to Medium. On systems where the policy has been changed to prompt at High, this cmdlet will not prompt to execute. Execution confirmation can be forced by using the -Confirm parameter.

Invoked scripts are cached in memory so that subsequent calls to the same script can execute immediately, without waiting for the script to be pulled from PowerMapi.com. Cached scripts, by default, expire after 15 minutes of no use and this interval can be adjusted (for the current PowerMapi host instance) using Set-pmCachedScriptExpire. Each subsequent invocation of a script resets the timer.

This cmdlet searches private scripts first before searching community scripts. See Get-pmScript's remarks about FileID and ambiguity.
