PowerShell script to update value in the JSON file.

Question

Please help in creating a PowerShell script to update the value in the JSON file. Want to get it done using paramaters not as hardcoded.

Answer 1

Hi,

What is the $object? Can you post the error message? Why not just update the value as you did above

$file.glossary.GlossDiv.GlossList.GlossEntry.SortAs=$sort_as

Answer 2

On this line:

$object.GlossEntry. = $object.roles.psobject.Properties.Value

You need to correct this $object is undefined and there's a trailing period after $object.GlossEntry

Plus, it looks like you've omitted parts of your script.

Also, the JSON text you posted cannot be processed by the ConvertFrom-JSON cmdlet.
