You can use this code to send that array data, var output, or CSV file to anyone via email.
Two ways you can do this:
The quick way (no attachments):
– For this you will need a from, to, and valid SMTP server to send the message to.
– To email your script output, just replace the $body var or assign the var to $body.
– $body += $yourscriptdata
$emailFrom = “me@pcli.me”
$emailTo = “you@pcli.me”
$subject = “Email subject”
$body = “Body of the message”
$smtpServer = “smtp.pcli.me”
$smtp = new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer)
$smtp.Send($emailFrom, $emailTo, $subject, $body)
The detailed way (using attachments)
– I added $thedate var so you can add a date string to your body or subject.
– You can add more files, just add more $fileX parms.
– You can send it to more than one person or group by adding more “$msg.To.Add” lines.
$thedate = (get-date).tostring(‘ddMMMyyy’)
$smtpServer = “smtp.pcli.me”
$file1 = “C:\temp\file1.csv”
$file2 = “C:\temp\vcenterExport.csv”
$att1 = new-object Net.Mail.Attachment($file1)
$att2 = new-object Net.Mail.Attachment($file2)
$msg = new-object Net.Mail.MailMessage
$smtp = new-object Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer)
$msg.From = “me@pcli.me”
$msg.To.Add(“you@pcli.me”)
$msg.To.Add(“afriend@pcli.me”)
$msg.To.Add(FriendsFriend@pcli.me)
$msg.Subject = “EMail Subject”
$msg.Body = “Body of message – See attached CSV files `n`n`n`n”
$msg.Attachments.Add($att1)
$msg.Attachments.Add($att2)
$smtp.Send($msg)
$att1.Dispose()
$att2.Dispose()
sleep 10
del c:\temp\file1.csv
del c:\temp\vcenterExport.csv
*****Its important to run the $attX.Dispose() to free up system memory.
