Description

The Get-SqlAgentJobHistory cmdlet gets the JobHistory object present in the target instance of SQL Agent.

This cmdlet supports the following modes of operation to get the JobHistory object:

  • Specify the path of the SQL Agent instance.
  • Pass the instance of the SQL Agent in the input.
  • Invoke the cmdlet in a valid context.

Examples

Example 1: Get the entire job history from the specified server instance

PS C:\> Get-SqlAgentJobHistory -ServerInstance "MyServerInstance" | Format-Table

InstanceID SqlMessageID Message
---------- ------------ -------
        34            0 The job succeeded.  The Job was invoked by Schedule 8 (syspolicy_purge_history_schedule).  T... 
        33            0 Executed as user: DOMAIN\Machine1$. The step did not generate any output.  Process Exit

This command gets the entire job history in the server instance named MyServerInstance and then formats the output.

Example 2: Get the job history from the specified server instance

PS C:\> Get-SqlAgentJobHistory -ServerInstance "MyServerInstance" -JobID 187112d7-84e1-4b66-b093-e97201c441ed

JobID            : 187112d7-84e1-4b66-b093-e97201c441ed
JobName          : Job_73cc6990-6386-49f9-9826-96c318ad8afa
RunStatus        : 3

This command gets the job history of the job object with ID '187112d7-84e1-4b66-b093-e97201c441ed' in the server instance named 'MyServerInstance'.

Example 3: Get the job history from a time duration from the specified server instance

PS C:\> Get-SqlAgentJobHistory -ServerInstance "MyServerInstance" -Since Yesterday
InstanceID       : 4
SqlMessageID     : 0
Message          : The job was stopped prior to completion by User admin.  The Job was invoked by User
                   admin.  The last step to run was step 1 (JobStep_3e4cd4ba-3433-4311-a6a2-816884101504).

This command returns the job history since the day before in the server instance named 'MyServerInstance'.

Parameters

-AccessToken

The access token used to authenticate to SQL Server, as an alternative to user/password or Windows Authentication.

This can be used, for example, to connect to SQL Azure DB and SQL Azure Managed Instance using a Service Principal or a Managed Identity.

The parameter to use can be either a string representing the token or a PSAccessToken object as returned by running Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:PSObject
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-ConnectionTimeout

Specifies the number of seconds to wait for a server connection before a time-out failure. The time-out value must be an integer value between 0 and 65534. If 0 is specified, connection attempts do not time out.

Type:Int32
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Credential

Specifies a PSCredential object that is used to specify the credentials for a SQL Server login that has permission to perform this operation.

Type:PSCredential
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Encrypt

The encryption type to use when connecting to SQL Server.

This value maps to the Encrypt property SqlConnectionEncryptOption on the SqlConnection object of the Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver.

In v22 of the module, the default is Optional (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be 'Mandatory', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:String
Accepted values:Mandatory, Optional, Strict
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-EndRunDate

Specifies a job filter constraint that restricts the values returned to the date the job completed.

Type:DateTime
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-HostNameInCertificate

The host name to be used in validating the SQL Server TLS/SSL certificate. You must pass this parameter if your SQL Server instance is enabled for Force Encryption and you want to connect to an instance using hostname/shortname. If this parameter is omitted then passing the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) to -ServerInstance is necessary to connect to a SQL Server instance enabled for Force Encryption.

This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-InputObject
