Export Forms Services Administration Files

Scenario/Problem: You need to backup all of the form templates and data connection files that have been deployed to forms services.

Solution: Use the Export-SPInfoPathAdministrationFiles cmdlet.

You can use the Export-SPInfoPathAdministrationFiles cmdlet to produce a backup CAB file that contains all the forms and data connection files that have been deployed to the InfoPath Forms Services Application. Simply provide a path and filename, as shown in Listing 12.9. Optionally, you can provide the identity of the InfoPath Forms Service Application.
