How to get Sitecore item fields from item using powershell?

Question

I am trying to get all the fields on the available item. seems like the following line is not fetching all the fields. Am i missing something ?

$fields = $item.Fields

Answer 1

You can use Get-ItemField function to get all item fields and loop through them as below to read them.

$item = Get-Item -Path "master:" -ID "{{Item_ID}}"
$fields = $item | Get-ItemField -ReturnType Field
foreach($field in $fields){
  Write-Host "Field Name: $($field.Name)"
  Write-Host "Field Value: $($item.Fields[$field.Name].Value)" 
}

This will return all the fields on the item which are not standard fields. In case you would like to fetch standard fields as well you can add -IncludeStandardFields flag to Get-ItemField function.

Note: In case you need to use $item.Fieldsto return all the fields, you will need to call $item.Fields.ReadAll() function before reading item fields as below.

$item.Fields.ReadAll()
# exclude standard fields.
$fields = $item.Fields | Where-Object { $_.Name -notlike '__**' }

We need to call ReadAll() function as above since Fields are lazy loaded, hence the call to this function is required to read all the fields.

Hope this helps!!!

To get all the fields of an item use this.

PS master:\> Get-ItemField -Path master:\content\home

To get all the fields of an item using standard fields use this.

PS master:\> Get-Item master:\content\home | Get-ItemField -IncludeStandardFields
