HowTo: Navigate to Infrastructure Cloud Project

Be sure to check out my Scripting4Crypto initiative. It’s a fun way to get into using cryptocurrencies all while getting your PowerShell needs met.

I have a simple one today. Lately, I am finding myself needing to navigate to an Infrastructure Cloud project associated with a Work Area. This is simple to do within PowerShell.

First you will need to get the ProjectWise folder object for the desired Work Area.

# Obtain the ProjectWise folder object.
$pwFolder = Show-PWFolderBrowserDialog -DialogTitle 'Select Work Area'

Next, you will need to get the Infrastructure Cloud project Guid. This will be used in an URL to navigate to the Infrastructure Cloud project.

# Obtain the Infrastructure Cloud project guid.
$Guid = [System.Guid]::NewGuid()
if([pwwrapper]::aaApi_GetConnectedProjectAssociation($pwFolder.ProjectID, [ref] $Guid)){
    Write-Host $guid.Guid -ForegroundColor Green
} else {
    Write-Warning -Message "$([pwwrapper]::aaApi_GetMessageByErrorId([pwwrapper]::aaApi_GetLastErrorId()))"
    break
}

Finally, you will simply navigate to the Infrastructure Cloud project.

# Open the web browser and navigate to the specified Infrastructure Cloud project.
explorer "https://infrastructurecloud.bentley.com/$($Guid)/home"

Experiment with it and have fun.
