Alias
Required True
Pipeline true (ByValue)
Default Value

-SqlCredential

Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential).
Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported.

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-Database

Specifies the name of the database that contains the target table.

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-Query

The T-SQL command to execute. This string can contain placeholders for properties taken from the events.
Placeholders are in the form , where PropertyName is one of the fields or actions available in the Event object.

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-EnableException

By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value False
-Event

Each Response can be limited to processing specific events, while ignoring all the other ones. When this attribute is omitted, all events are processed.

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-Filter

You can specify a filter expression by using this attribute. The filter expression is in the same form that you would use in a SQL query. For example, a valid example looks like this: duration >
10000 AND cpu_time > 10000

Alias
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-WhatIf

If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.

Alias wi
Required False
Pipeline false
Default Value
-Confirm

If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.

Alias cf
