I am using powershell to read a csv file and then uploading the file to sharepoint. However, I would like to rename the file. how is it done? Is it done before I load the file from fileshare to document library. or during the add method. I am not sure. Please let me know.
$sourceFile = Get-ChildItem $i.FileLocation
$newFile = $docLibrary.RootFolder.Files.Add($destinationFolderPath,$sourceFile.OpenRead(), $true)
$theItem = $newFile.Item
$theItem["Name"] = $i.newfilename
where i is file stream and newfilename is the column name for new file name.
This works for me.
One other post here was answering something similar upload file to document library
Pay attention to the last part when name is changed.
