The Export-CMApplication cmdlet exports an application to a file. Specify a file path to the location where you want to export the application.
Note
Run Configuration Manager cmdlets from the Configuration Manager site drive, for example PS XYZ:\>. For more information, see getting started.
PS XYZ:\> Get-CMApplication "Application01" | Export-CMApplication -Path "C:\test.zip" -IgnoreRelated -OmitContent -Comment "Application export" -Force
This command gets the application object named Applicaton01 and uses the pipeline operator to pass the object to Export-CMApplicaton. Export-CMApplication exports the application to the path C:\test.zip, omitting related content from the zip file, and not exporting related objects. Specifying the Force parameter indicates that the application is exported without prompting the user.
PS XYZ:\>Export-CMApplication -Name "Application01" -Path "C:\test.zip" -IgnoreRelated -OmitContent -Comment "Application export"
This command exports the application named Application01 to the path C:\test.zip, omitting related content from the zip file, and not exporting related objects. Specifying the Force parameter indicates that the application is exported without prompting the user.
Specifies a comment for the exported application.
