Add, Deploy, and Activate the SharePoint Solution Files with PowerShell

To install the SharePoint solution files for AgilePoint using the PowerShell command line tool, do the procedure in this topic.

Prerequisites

How to Start

  1. On the primary SharePoint front-end web server, open the PowerShell command line tool.

    For SharePoint 2013, the default location is Start > Microsoft SharePoint 2013 Products > SharePoint 2013 Management Shell.

Procedure

  1. On the primary SharePoint front-end web server, in the PowerShell command line tool, add the solution files to SharePoint.
    Add-SPSolution "[AgilePoint SharePoint Integration installation folder]\Ascentn.SharePoint.SettingsList.wsp"
    Add-SPSolution "[AgilePoint SharePoint Integration installation folder]\AgilePoint.SharePoint.Dashboard.wsp"
    Add-SPSolution "[AgilePoint SharePoint Integration installation folder]\Ascentn.SharePoint.WFIntegration.wsp"
    Add-SPSolution "[AgilePoint SharePoint Integration installation folder]\Ascentn.SharePoint.ListForm.wsp"

    Example Path: C:\Program Files\AgilePoint\AgilePoint Integration for SharePoint

    This copies the wsp files from the installation folder (The default location is [AgilePoint installation folder]\AgilePoint Integration for SharePoint.), and adds them to SharePoint's Central Administration repository. You can specify a different path in the command.

  2. On the primary SharePoint front-end web server in the PowerShell command line tool, deploy the solution files to SharePoint.
    Install-SPSolution -WebApplication "[Site Collection URL]" -GACDeployment
