PowerShell - File and Directory Operations

You have a PowerShell object:

$person = @{ Name = "Eve"; Age = 28; Skills = @("PowerShell", "JSON") }

Which command correctly converts this object to JSON text with indentation for readability?

A$person | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 2 -Compress

B$person | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 2 -Pretty

C$person | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 2

DConvertTo-Json $person -Depth 2 -Compress

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand ConvertTo-Json parameters
ConvertTo-Json converts objects to JSON text. The -Depth parameter controls how deep nested objects are converted.
Step 2: Identify correct parameter for indentation
By default, ConvertTo-Json outputs indented JSON. The -Compress parameter removes whitespace, so it is not desired. There is no -Pretty parameter.
Final Answer:
$person | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 2 -> Option C
Quick Check:
Default output is indented JSON [OK]

Quick Trick: Use ConvertTo-Json with -Depth; default output is indented [OK]
