Documenting Task Sequences Automagically


Load PowerShell from the Configuration Manager Console
1. Start by launching the Configuration Manager console. In the upper left corner, there’s a blue rectangle. Click the white arrow in the blue rectangle, and choose “Connect via Windows PowerShell”.

Run This Command
(Get-CMTaskSequence | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq “<Name of the Task Sequence>”}).Sequence | Out-File J:YourFileName1.xml

Follow these Steps 
1. Copy this file to the same folder as your YourFileName1.xml.

3. Open your task sequence in your favourite text editor.

4. After the first line which should look something like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?> or <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

enter the following as the second line:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="tsDocumentorv2.xsl" mce_href="tsDocumentorv2.xsl"?>

5. Save your file and open it in Internet Explorer.


The XSL takes care of formatting, indents and sizing.
