# New-PSUDashboard

New-PSUDashboard creates a new app in PowerShell Universal from a file path, script content, or module, using the legacy dashboard cmdlet name.

## SYNOPSIS

Creates a new app in PowerShell Universal.

## SYNTAX

```powershell
New-PSUDashboard -Name <String> [-FilePath <String>] [<AppOptions>] [<ConnectionOptions>] [<CommonParameters>]
New-PSUDashboard -Name <String> -Content <ScriptBlock> [<AppOptions>] [<ConnectionOptions>] [<CommonParameters>]
New-PSUDashboard -Name <String> [-Module <String>] [-Command <String>] [<AppOptions>] [<ConnectionOptions>] [<CommonParameters>]
```

`<AppOptions>`: `[-BaseUrl <String>] [-Environment <String>] [-GrantAppToken] [-Maintenance] [-Authenticated] [-Role <String[]>] [-DisableAutoStart] [-Component <DashboardComponent[]>] [-SessionTimeout <Int32>] [-IdleTimeout <Int32>] [-AutoDeploy] [-Description <String>] [-Credential <String>] [-DisableErrorToast] [-DisableStartupLog] [-VerboseErrorMessages] [-Tag <Tag[]>] [-DisableInteractiveHost] [-FavIcon <String>] [-OnSessionTimeout <ScriptBlock>] [-ComputerGroup <String[]>] [-AvailableInBranch <String[]>] [-Critical]`.

`<ConnectionOptions>`: `[-ComputerName <String>] [-AppToken <String>] [-UseDefaultCredentials] [-Integrated] [-TrustCertificate] [-Cookies]`. Here `-Credential` is the app's execution credential name, not Management API Basic credentials.

## DESCRIPTION

This legacy cmdlet name is an alias of `New-PSUApp`. Create the app from a repository file, inline content, or a module command. `-FilePath` is optional in the default parameter set. `-Component` is retained for compatibility but not used. `-Critical` makes an app-start failure cause the `/api/v1/status` endpoint to return 500.

## EXAMPLES

```powershell
New-PSUDashboard -Name 'App' -BaseUrl '/app' -FilePath 'app.ps1'
```

Creates an app using the `app.ps1` file in the repository and serves it at `/app`.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell-universal/powershell-commands/new-psudashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
