问题
I need to send a curl request from powershell, using box api reference for help (I'm looking the the section called Update User, but I'm having some trouble:
curl https://api.box.com/2.0/users/11111 -H @{"Authorization" = "token"} -d '{"name": "bob"}' -X PUT
Should update the user's name, but I get:
Invoke-WebRequest : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument '{"name": "bob"}'. At G:\IT\bassie\Box\GetUsers.ps1:5 char:1 + curl https://api.box.com/2.0/users/892861590 -H @{"Authorization" = " ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Invoke-WebRequest], ParameterBindingException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand
I tried re-arranging it to
-d @{"name" = "bob"}
but the error changed to
Invoke-WebRequest : A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'System.Collections.Hashtable'. At G:\IT\bassie\Box\GetUsers.ps1:5 char:1 + curl https://api.box.com/2.0/users/892861590 -H @{"Authorization" = " ... + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : InvalidArgument: (:) [Invoke-WebRequest], ParameterBindingException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PositionalParameterNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand
What do I need to put into the -d parameter?
回答1:
curl is an alias for PowerShell - Invoke-WebRequest, hence the error.
# Get parameters, example, full and Online help for a cmdlet or function
(Get-Command -Name Invoke-WebRequest).Parameters
Get-help -Name Invoke-WebRequest -Examples
Get-help -Name Invoke-WebRequest -Full
Get-help -Name Invoke-WebRequest -Online
Get-Alias -Definition Invoke-WebRequest | Format-Table -AutoSize -Wrap
CommandType Name Version Source
----------- ---- ------- ------
Alias curl -> Invoke-WebRequest
Alias iwr -> Invoke-WebRequest
Alias wget -> Invoke-WebRequest
If you are trying to use real curl in PowerShell, then you must use curl.exe, or remove the curl alias from Invoke-WebRequest.
The errors are because passing parameters/arguments that Invoke-WebRequest has no idea what they are or what to do with the.
If you are trying to use external tools in PowerShell, then you have to fully qualify the UNC and name including the externtion, to them and remember that using external tools with PowerShell, this must be approached in a defined way.
For example:
See Using Windows PowerShell to run old command line tools (and their weirdest parameters) 'https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/josebda/2012/03/03/using-windows-powershell-to-run-old-command-line-tools-and-their-weirdest-parameters'

回答2:
I managed to do what I needed with
$url = "https://api.box.com/2.0/users/111111111"
$headers = @{"Authorization" = "Bearer TOKEN"}
$body = '{"status": "inactive"}'
$contentType = "application/json"
Invoke-WebRequest $url -Headers $headers -ContentType $contentType -Body $body -Method PUT
So it seems that not only did I need to replace the -D parameter with -Body, but I also had to specify the ConteType as application/json in order to use that format.
