This module also explains how to restrict administrative access with Just Enough Administration (JEA). Module 7: Analyzing and debugging scripts This module explains how to use native Windows PowerShell features to analyze and debug existing scripts. Module 8: Understanding Windows PowerShell Workflow This module explains the features of the Windows PowerShell Workflow technology.

After completing this course, students will be able to: create advanced functions, use Microsoft .NET Framework and REST API in Windows PowerShell, write controller scripts, handle script errors, use XML, JSON, and custom formatted data, enhance server management with Desired State Configuration and Just Enough Administration, analyze and debug scripts, understand Windows PowerShell workflow.

Students who attend this training can meet the prerequisites by obtaining equivalent knowledge and skills through practical experience as a Windows System Administrator.
