Description

PSSA2 will change some APIs but should continue to provide a way for users depending on the current PowerShell API structure to continue using those to offer a migration path where possible.

This includes:

  • Providing objects with the same properties and methods as today's output objects
  • Supporting legacy parameters on commands
  • Allowing old-style configuration when flags are passed otherwise configured

Research direction

Start by inventorying the current PowerShell API structure, including output objects, command parameters, and configuration flags, then compare it with the planned PSSA2 changes. Done means users can retain current objects and methods, use legacy command parameters, and use old-style configuration where possible.
