Compare-BapEnvironmentD365App

SYNOPSIS

Compare environment D365 Apps

SYNTAX

Compare-BapEnvironmentD365App [-SourceEnvironmentId] <String> [-DestinationEnvironmentId] <String>
 [-ShowDiffOnly] [[-GeoRegion] <String>] [-AsExcelOutput] [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>]
 [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

Enables the user to compare 2 x environments, with one as a source and the other as a destination

It will only look for installed D365 Apps on the source, and use this as a baseline against the destination

EXAMPLES

EXAMPLE 1

Compare-BapEnvironmentD365App -SourceEnvironmentId *uat* -DestinationEnvironmentId *test*

This will get all installed D365 Apps from the Source Environment. It will iterate over all of them, and validate against the Destination Environment.

Sample output: PpacD365AppName PpacPackageName SourceVersion DestinationVersion

EXAMPLE 2

Compare-BapEnvironmentD365App -SourceEnvironmentId *uat* -DestinationEnvironmentId *test* -ShowDiffOnly

This will get all installed D365 Apps from the Source Environment. It will iterate over all of them, and validate against the Destination Environment. It will filter out results, to only include those where the DestinationVersions is different from the SourceVersion.

Sample output: PpacD365AppName PpacPackageName SourceVersion DestinationVersion

EXAMPLE 3

Compare-BapEnvironmentD365App -SourceEnvironmentId *uat* -DestinationEnvironmentId *test* -AsExcelOutput

This will get all installed D365 Apps from the Source Environment. It will iterate over all of them, and validate against the Destination Environment. Will output all details into an Excel file, that will auto open on your machine.

Environment Id of the source environment that you want to utilized as the baseline for the compare

Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:

Required: True
Position: 1
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-DestinationEnvironmentId

Environment Id of the destination environment that you want to validate against the baseline (source)
