Grant tfs build to execute sharepoint cmdlet

Question

I use TFS Build which is configured with a service account.

I've modified the worklow template to execute a powershell script.

The powershell is launched but on sharepoint cmdlet I have an "access denied error".

So I tested the script with run as different user (using tfs build service account) and it works.

The tfs service account SpShelleAdmin, local admin and farm admin.

I need help.

PS : Get-SpSolution works

Answer 1

How have you implemented the support for executing powershell?
You could implement a custom activity that actually does the powershell invoking by using the System.Management.Automation namespace (a very nice example can be found here ). Just surround the implementation with the Impersonation class presented here .
