Pass a Team City Parameter to a PowerShell file

Question

I have the following parameter defined in Team City:

I want to pass this parameter into a powershell script I have (that will update the xml file with the version number).

But this inserts the actual text %version% into the script (No substitution is made for the actual value of the parameter.)

However, I know my script is working because if I hardcode the values like this then it works:

Is there a way to get %version% to convert to the actual value when when used as a PowerShell script argument?

Answer 1

If you put the parameter in quotes, "%version%", and change the script execution mode to Execute ps1 script with "-File" argument then this should resolve and inject correctly

e.g.

Hope this helps
