Rename-CloudStorage Cmdlet
Parameters Output Objects Configuration Settings
The Rename-CloudStorage component is used to rename remote files stored by Cloud Storage providers.
Syntax
Rename-CloudStorage [parameters]
Remarks
To rename a file, pass the full path and filename of the original file to RemoteFile and the new name for the file to NewName. If no path is specified in NewName, the renamed file will stay in the same directory as the original file. If a path is included in NewName, the file will be moved to the specified directory.
The following providers use OAuth 2.0 for authentication:
- Box.com
- DropBox
- Google Drive
- Google Cloud Storage*
- Microsoft OneDrive
For each of these providers, OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret are required to generate the OAuth token. The cmdlet will automatically fetch and cache OAuth tokens, which requires user-interaction the first time.
Once the token has been cached the cmdlet will automatically use and refresh this token without additional interaction. The OAuthCacheDir parameter governs the location of the OAuth cache files, and passing the empty string to this parameter will disable OAuth caching entirely.
To authenticate with the remaining providers, use the parameters shown in the table below:
Provider | Relevant Parameters |
Amazon S3 | AccessKey and SecretKey |
Azure Blob | Account and AccessKey |
Azure File | Account and AccessKey |
Digital Ocean Spaces | AccessKey and SecretKey |
Google Cloud Storage* | ProjectId (if using OAuthClientId and OAuthClientSecret for OAuth); or, AccessKey and SecretKey |
Hadoop DFS | Multiple HTTP authentication schemes are supported; refer to AuthMechanism for more information. HadoopURL must always be set. |
Wasabi | AccessKey and SecretKey |
*Google Cloud Storage supports two authentication methods. To authenticate with OAuth 2.0 (preferred) set the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and ProjectId parameters. To authenticate with an access and secret key, set the AccessKey and SecretKey parameters instead.
The cmdlets support pipeline input for some of their parameters. Prebuilding an object and piping it to the cmdlet is very useful, but should be used with caution to prevent security conflicts. Steps have been taken to decrease the risk of a possibly accidental pipe to the cmdlet, for instance, the Credential parameter cannot be piped to the cmdlet and must be specified manually.
#Rename a file without moving to a new directory in DigitalOcean Rename-CloudStorage -serviceprovider digitalocean -accesskey $access -secretkey $secret -remotefile "/root/folder/test.txt" -newname "renamed.txt" #Rename a file and move it to a new directory Rename-CloudStorage -serviceprovider digitalocean -accesskey $access -secretkey $secret -remotefile "/root/folder/test.txt" -newname "/root/renamed.txt"
Note: The following service providers do not expose an API that natively supports file renaming:
- Amazon S3
- DigitalOcean
- Azure Blob
Connection Handling
This cmdlet supports persistent connections through the Connection parameter. To establish a new CloudStorage connection, use the Connect-CloudStorage cmdlet. To close the connection, use the Disconnect-CloudStorage cmdlet.
