Script which searches and replaces a name in the BusinessRules

Question

Hello How can I use a script to search for "123France - Create" in the business rules and replace the "123France - Create" with "France - Update"? This would be an example of searching for "123France - Create": Adaxes://AI0ADX1.FRANCE.com/CN=123France - Create - Collaborateur administratif,CN=Administration,CN=Service,CN=FRANCE,CN=Business Rules,CN=Configuration Objects,CN=Adaxes Configuration,CN=Adaxes And this should be done throughout the CN=Business Rules. It will always be searched for "123France - Create".

Hello,

have a look at the following script from our repository: https://www.adaxes.com/script-repository/search-and-replace-text-in-adaxes-scripts-s224.htm.

Ok thank you. However, I do not want to search in scripts, but in the names of the BusinessRules. I have a BusinessRule called 123France - Create - Collaborateur administratif. I would like to replace the name of the BusinessRule

Hello,

Thank you for clarifying. To achieve the desired, use the below script. To execute it, create a business rule, custom command or scheduled task. In the script:

• $textToReplace - the test to replace in business rule names.
• $textToSet - the text to set into business rule names during replacement.

$textToReplace = "123France - Create" # TODO: modify me
$textToSet = "France - Update" # TODO: modify me

# Search parameters
$rulesContainerPath = $Context.GetWellKnownContainerPath("businessRules")
$searcher = $Context.BindToObject($rulesContainerPath)
$searcher.Criteria = New-AdmCriteria "adm-BusinessRule"
$searcher.SearchScope = "ADS_SCOPE_SUBTREE"
$searcher.PageSize = 500
$searcher.ReferralChasing = "ADS_CHASE_REFERRALS_NEVER"

try
{
    # Execute search
    $searchResultIterator = $searcher.ExecuteSearch()
    $searchResults = $searchResultIterator.FetchAll()

    foreach ($searchResult in $searchResults)
    {
        $rule = $Context.BindToObjectBySearchResult($searchResult)
        $ruleName = $rule.Get("name")

        # Update business rules.
        if ($ruleName -like "*$textToReplace*")
        {
            $ruleName = $ruleName.Replace($textToReplace, $textToSet)            
            $rule.Put("name", $ruleName)
            $rule.SetInfo()
        }
    }
}
finally
{
    # Release resources
    if ($searchResultIterator){ $searchResultIterator.Dispose() }
}
