InstallAccount	Write	String	POWERSHELL 4 ONLY: The account to run this resource as, use PsDscRunAsCredential if using PowerShell 5

Description

This resource is responsible for creating managed paths associated with a specific web application. The WebAppUrl parameter is used to specify the web application to create the path against, and the RelativeUrl parameter lets you set the URL. Explicit when set to true will create an explicit inclusion path, if set to false the path is created as wildcard inclusion. If you are using host named site collections set HostHeader to true and the path will be created as a host header path to be applied for host named site collections.

The default value for the Ensure parameter is Present. When not specifying this parameter, the managed path is created.

Examples

Example 1

This example shows how to deploy an explicit managed path to a specifici web application

    {
        param(
            [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
            [PSCredential]
            $SetupAccount
        )
        Import-DscResource -ModuleName SharePointDsc

        node localhost {
            SPManagedPath TestManagedPath 
            {
                WebAppUrl      = "http://sharepoint.contoso.com"
                InstallAccount = $SetupAccount
                RelativeUrl    = "example"
                Explicit       = $true
                HostHeader     = $false
            }
        }
    }

Example 2

This example shows how to add a wildcard managed path to a specific web application

    {
        param(
            [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
            [PSCredential]
            $SetupAccount
        )
        Import-DscResource -ModuleName SharePointDsc

        node localhost {
            SPManagedPath TestManagedPath 
            {
                WebAppUrl      = "http://sharepoint.contoso.com"
                InstallAccount = $SetupAccount
                RelativeUrl    = "teams"
                Explicit       = $false
                HostHeader     = $true
            }
        }
    }

Example 3

This example shows how to remove a wildcard managed path from a specific web application

    Configuration Example 
    {
        param(
            [Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
            [PSCredential]
            $SetupAccount
        )
        Import-DscResource -ModuleName SharePointDsc

        node localhost {
            SPManagedPath TestManagedPath 
            {
                WebAppUrl      = "http://sharepoint.contoso.com"
                InstallAccount = $SetupAccount
                RelativeUrl    = "teams"
                Explicit       = $false
                HostHeader     = $true
                Ensure         = "Absent"
