Export-Csv doesn't work as I expected - powershell

Question

I have written a little script which should be export the output as CSV.
Here is my script:
$Jobs = Get-VBRJob
foreach ($Job in $Jobs) {
$JobName = $Job.Name
$Objects = $Job.GetObjectsInJob()
$RestorePoints = Get-VBRRestorePoint -Backup $JobName
$Day = $Job.ScheduleOptions.OptionsDaily.DaysSrv
$RP = $RestorePoints.Count
$VM = $Objects.Name
$obj = New-Object PSObject
$obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "JobName" -Value $JobName
$obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Objects" -Value $Objects
$obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "RestorePoints" -Value $RestorePoints
$obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "Day" -Value $Day
$obj | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name "VM" -Value $VM
}
$obj | Export-Csv $path -NoType
I read something about doing it via New-Object PSObject, so I tried this, but the CSV has only one line and returns the types of the attributes not the value. Only "JobName" and "VM" is working fine.
Can anyone help me to get the value of "Objects", "RestorePoints" and "Day" into CSV?

Answer 1

$obj contains only the object you just created, so after the loop completes, the variable holds the last object created in the loop, which is then exported to the CSV. A better approach would be outputting the created objects in the loop and collecting the loop output in a variable. I'd also recommend avoiding Add-Member unless you need to add members to an object that had been created elsewhere.
$obj = foreach ($Job in $Jobs) {
...
New-Object -Type PSObject -Property #{
'JobName' = $JobName
'Objects' = $Objects
'RestorePoints' = $RestorePoints
'Day' = $Day
'VM' = $VM
}
}
Also, if the values you're assigning to the new object's properties are objects themselves, PowerShell will export the string representation of those objects to the CSV, which usually is the full name of the object's class. If you want particular values in the output you probably need to expand those further (e.g. 'VM' = $VM.Name). What exactly you need to do there depends on the actual object, though, so I can't help much there without knowing more about the structure of the objects.
