@sns Please run the following script on the SharePoint Management Shell as an admin. 21477-script-xlsx1.txt Thanks, Echo Du ---------- If the response is helpful, please click " Accept Answer " and upvote it

here is the script which generates all files inventory report for Sharepoint site collection using CSOM (i.e. should work both for Sharepoint on-prem and online): SharePoint Online: Get All Documents Inventory in a Site using PowerShell Note that if you work with on-prem then depending on your version of Sharepoint you may need to change path to CSOM dlls in the beginning of the script. E.g. if you have Sharepoint 2013 change path to these: Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll" Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\ISAPI\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll" (i.e. change 16 to 15 in the path).

@sns

You could try to run the following script, the script only supports loop through excel files in a specific Document Library.
21611-script-xlsx.txt

For the script that loop through all excel files in the Site collection, we are performing research test.

Thanks,

Hi Echo Du,
First script you have given for library alone, worked but no data in excel file.
For second script I will wait.

Hi Echo,
script "script-xlsx1.txt" worked , which pulled only xlsx type files
so do we need to replace .doc, .docx , pdf and .jpg for other types of files in the same script?
can we do at one shot to pull all types of files?

@sns

Yes, you can modify script code to list the specific type files.

For example :

if($filetype -eq "docx") # list all word files if($filetype -ne $null) # list all types of files
