How to pipe DocuSign Data to CSV in PowerShell

The CData Cmdlets Module for DocuSign is a standard PowerShell module offering straightforward integration with DocuSign. Below, you will find examples of using our DocuSign Cmdlets with native PowerShell cmdlets.

Creating a Connection to Your DocuSign Data

To connect to DocuSign, set the following connection properties:

• UseSandbox: indicates whether current user account is sandbox or not (FALSE by default)
• AccountId (optional): set it in the connection string if you have access to multiple Account Ids

Authenticating to DocuSign

DocuSign uses the OAuth authentication standard. To authenticate using OAuth, you will need to create an app to obtain the OAuthClientId, OAuthClientSecret, and CallbackURL connection properties. See the Help documentation more information.

$conn = Connect-DocuSign  -OAuthClientId "$OAuthClientId" -OAuthClientSecret "$OAuthClientSecret" -CallbackURL "$CallbackURL"

Selecting Data

Follow the steps below to retrieve data from the Documents table and pipe the result into to a CSV file:

Select-DocuSign -Connection $conn -Table Documents | Select -Property * -ExcludeProperty Connection,Table,Columns | Export-Csv -Path c:\myDocumentsData.csv -NoTypeInformation

You will notice that we piped the results from Select-DocuSign into a Select-Object cmdlet and excluded some properties before piping them into an Export-Csv cmdlet. We do this because the CData Cmdlets append Connection, Table, and Columns information onto each "row" in the result set, and we do not necessarily want that information in our CSV file.
