Thanks Kevlar01 I just succeed at the same time you posted

 

Param(

[string]$Collection

)

#/ Session Creation /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Try {

$MySession = New-PSSession $ServerHostName

}

Catch{

Write-Host "Error: $($_.Exception.Message)"

}

#/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Invoke-Command -session $MySession -ArgumentList $Collection -script {

param ($Collection)

#/ Import Module + Change Drive /*---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Import-Module "Path TO Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\bin\ConfigurationManager.psd1"

$SCCMDrv = Get-PSDrive -PSProvider CMSite

cd "$($SCCMDrv):"

#/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$CollectionInfos = Get-WmiObject -Namespace "Root\SMS\Site_$SiteCode" -Class SMS_Collection -Filter "Name='$Collection'" | Select CollectionID

$CollectionID = $CollectionInfos.CollectionID

$MyCollection = Get-WmiObject -Namespace Root\SMS\Site_$SiteCode -Class SMS_CollectionSettings -Filter "CollectionID = '$CollectionID'"

$MyCollection.Get()

foreach($Value in $MyCollection.CollectionVariables) {

$Value

# OR $Value.Name

}

Exit

}

You can call your script by using the following command : Powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File ListDeviceCollectionVariables.ps1 -Collection "My Collection Name"

Hello - I'm a complete noob to powershell. I have attempted to run your script but receive "You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression." Is the 'null valued expression '$Value'? It's the only variable that isn't defined. Also, once I have it working, I want it to output both a collection's variable along with it's value. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
