Powershell for Sharpoint: Get the list of Alerts

In the previous article I show you how you can add a new alert in your SharePoint by PowerShell, with the following snip of code you can get the list of the alerts on your site

 

 

clear

$webAppUrl = Read-Host -Prompt "Url Web Application: "

if ($webAppUrl.Length -ile 0) {
    $webAppUrl = "http://yoursitecollection:17927/sites/yoursite"
}

$web = Get-SPWeb $webAppUrl

$myalerts = @()

$alerts = $web.Alerts

Write-Host "Prints alerts and some properties"

foreach ($alert in $alerts) {
    if ($alert.User.LoginName.Contains("raise") -eq "True") {
        continue
    }

    "Status                            - " + $alert.Status
    "Title                             - " + $alert.Title
    "User ID                           - " + $alert.User.ID
    "User Name                         - " + $alert.User.Name
    "User Login                        - " + $alert.User.LoginName
    "Frequency                         - " + $alert.AlertFrequency
    "List                              - " + $alert.List.Title

    Write-Host "_____________________"
    $myalerts += 1
}

Write-Host "Num of alerts: " $myalerts.Count

Enjoy!
