WinEventLog

Description

Usage

Before you can log events you need to make sure that the LogName and Source exists. This needs to be done only once (run as an Administrator)

> New-EventLog -LogName <NOTSET> -Source <NOTSET>

You can now log to the EventLog from your script

> Add-LoggingTarget -Name WinEventLog -Configuration @{
    LogName = <NOTSET>          # <Required> Name of the log to which the events are written (eg. 'Application', 'System' and etc.)
    Source  = <NOTSET>          # <Required> Event source, which is typically the name of the application that is writing the event to the log
}

Write-Log -Level 'WARNING' -Message 'Hello, Powershell!'
Write-Log -Level 'WARNING' -Message 'Hello, {0}!' -Arguments 'Powershell'
Write-Log -Level 'WARNING' -Message 'Hello, {0}!' -Arguments 'Powershell' -Body @{ EventID = 123 }
