For a small project we will use Powershell to verify if a file on github is updated and then download it. We could download it and test the file size and do other stuff. A colleague of mine came up…
What I get is the website and not the file. Firefox follows the redirection and gets the correct file. How can I tell "Invoke-WebRequest" that I like to download the redirection an not the current website. Thanks! They would not have full feature parity between them. If you need remote data in PowerShell and not as a saved file, you would use the web cmdlets. if you needed to download the remote file and save it to disk you would use the download cmdlet. Making the download cmdlet put content to PowerShell output streams would not be its objective. The answer was to store the parameters in a file on my OneDrive for Business (ODB) site, and suck the contents of the file down to whatever machine I happened to be on with Invoke-WebRequest. The file needed to be a CSV file with three fields for each VPN--Name, IP Address, and the L2TP Pre-Shared Key. Easy enough, I know how to parse a CSV file. Welcome to my Getting Started with Windows PowerShell series! Next we'll use Invoke-WebRequest again to download the file.There are two ways we can get the file: Using Invoke-WebRequest to store the results in a variable, and then write all the bytes to a file using the Contents property (which is a byte array).; Using Invoke-WebRequest with the -OutFile parameter set as the full path of the download. With this option we'll want to use -PassThru so we can still get the results from Invoke download a file Welcome › Forums › General PowerShell Q&A › download a file This topic has 2 replies, 2 voices, and was last updated 3 years, 9 months ago by

When I write a Windows PowerShell script using Windows PowerShell 3.0 features, I add a #Requires statement. (I did the same thing in the early days of Windows PowerShell 2.0 also Because StreamToString decodes without considering the byte-order-mark it should be expected that the .Content property of the object returned by Invoke-WebRequest would contain incorrect data in the case of an endianness mismatch between whatever computer wrote the file that is served to Invoke-WebRequest and the computer invoking Invoke If you are then attempting to either upload or download very large files (in my case anything from a 1 GB upload or 3-4 GB download is normal), this seems to result in the entire file being uploaded or downloaded twice - a huge waste of time and resource. 👍
