PowerShell : Upload file to WebDav Server
1 Comment · Posted by Christopher Keyaert in PowerShell
The purpose of that Powershell Script is to upload a file on a webdav server. This could be useful for automatic report publishing on a portal.

And that’s it

You can make this script accept a self signed certificate for https: Useful if you just want to access your home NAS.
Change the line:
$objXMLHTTP = New-Object -ComObject MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP
To:
$objXMLHTTP = New-Object -ComObject MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP.6.0
and add this line below it:
$objXMLHTTP.setOption(2,13056)
This makes the script ignore any certificate errors.
