SharePoint PowerShell to Get Content Type Fields
Here is my PowerShell to get a Content Type and its columns, loop through them, and output a CSV file with the following data:
- Column Title
- Column Internal Name
- Column ID
- Column Group
- Column Description
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
#Variables for processing
$SiteURL = "https://intranet.crescent.com"
$ContentTypeName = "Credit Projects"
$OutputFile = "C:\Temp\ContentTypes.csv"
#Get the Web
$Web = Get-SPWeb $SiteURL
#Get the Content Type
$CType = $Web.ContentTypes[$ContentTypeName]
$ResultArray = @()
#Loop through the Fields in the Content Type
ForEach ($Field in $CType.Fields)
{
# Create a new custom object to hold our row of data with property names:
$Result = New-Object PSObject
$Result | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Title" -Value $field.Title
$Result | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Internal Name" -Value $field.InternalName
$Result | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "ID" -Value $field.Id
$Result | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Group" -Value $field.Group
$Result | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Description" -Value $field.Description
#Add the object to array
$ResultArray += $Result
}
# Export the results to CSV
$ResultArray | Export-Csv $OutputFile -NoTypeInformation
