Description

Provides the ability for additional custom data to be stored against given AppVPackage objects.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

Add metadata with a name of 'property' and a value of 'value' to the AppVPackage with the Uid 5.
Set-AppLibAppVPackageMetadata -AppVPackageUid 5 -Name property -Value value

Key                                       Value
---                                       -----
property                                  value

Parameters

-Name

Specifies the property name of the metadata to be added. The property must be unique for the AppVPackage specified. The property cannot contain any of the following characters \/;:#.*?=\<\>\|\[\]()"'
Type: String
Position: Named
Default value: None
Required: True
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Length range: 1 to 64
Disallowed characters: \/;:#.*?=<>\|[]()"'

-Value

Specifies the value for the property.
Type: String
Position: Named
Default value: None
Required: True
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
Length range: 1 to 1000

-Map

Specifies a dictionary of (name, value)-pairs for the properties. This can either be a hashtable (created with @{"name1" = "val1"; "name2" = "val2"}) or a string dictionary (created with new-object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary\[String,String\]").
Type: PSObject
Position: Named
Default value: None
Required: True
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: False

-AppVPackageUid

Id of the AppVPackage
Type: Int32
Position: 2
Default value: None
Required: True
Accept pipeline input: True (ByPropertyName, ByValue)

-AppVPackageName

Name of the AppVPackage
Type: String

-InputObject

Objects to which the metadata is to be added.
Type: AppVPackage[]
