Import-GPO by using folders named after its DisplayName - Powershell - powershell

Question

I am using a powershell script to import GPOs which I have saved as GUIDs (the default).
I wish to import the GPOs on a different system, the GPOs are saved to a CD at this point. So a simple way to import a single GPO would be:
$domain=[System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain]::GetCurrentDomain().Name
$import_array = get-childitem ($current_drive + $gpo_backup_location) | Select name
foreach ($GPO in $import_array) {
Import-GPO |
-backupgponame $GPO.name -path ($Current_Drive + $gpo_backup_location) |
-domain $domain |
-Targetname $GPO.name |
-migrationtable ($Current_drive + $mig_table_path) |
-Createifneeded;
}
}
the $import_array command gives me my folder names
Name
----------
GPO-1
GPO-2
GPO-3
GPO-4
and so on...
I want to iterate over these and import each one. The GPOs are saved using another block of code to backup the GPOs as their displayname. (GPO-1, GPO-2, etc.,)
I cannot for the life of me figure out how to force it to look at the folder name and to import these
EDIT
The Backup was created with the following code:
Function GPO_Backup_DisplayName ($MenuChoice) {
write 'Backing Up GPOs by Display Name'
Foreach ($GPO in $GPO_Temp_Backup) {
$GPOBackup = Backup-GPO `
-name $GPO.DisplayName `
-path ($Current_drive + $GPO_Backup_Location) `
-Domain $domain;
Get-GPOReport $GPO.DisplayName `
-reporttype HTML `
-Domain $domain `
-path ($Current_drive + $GPO_Backup_HTML_Report + $GPO.DisplayName + ".html");
Rename-item
-path ($Current_drive + $GPO_Backup_Location + "{" + $GPOBackup.Id + "}") `
-newname $GPO.DisplayName
}
}

If you export each GPO to its own folder and name that folder after the GPO, you can iterate over these folders in a foreach loop to import the GPOs and set the target name to the folder name. Something like this should work:
Get-ChildItem "C:\backup" | % {
$name = $_.name
$id = (get-childitem $_) -replace '[{}]', ''
Import-GPO -BackupId $id -TargetName $name -path $_.Path -CreateIfNeeded
}
Prerequisite is that you created the backups with something like this:
Get-GPO -All | % {
$name = $_.DisplayName
$dir = New-Item "C:\backup\$name" -Type Directory
Backup-GPO -Guid $_.Id -Path $dir
}
Also, the backup directory should contain only the folders with the single GPO backups, otherwise you'll have to add a filter between Get-ChildItem and ForEach-Object.
