PowerShell - File and Directory Operations

Given a PowerShell object with nested properties:

$obj = @{user = @{name = "Liam"; age = 34}; active = $true}
$json = $obj | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 2
$json

What is the correct output?

AError: Depth parameter invalid

B{"user":{"name":"Liam","age":34},"active":true}

C{"user":{"name":"Liam","age":34},"active":"true"}

D{"user":"Liam","age":34,"active":true}

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand ConvertTo-Json with nested objects
ConvertTo-Json serializes nested objects correctly when -Depth is set appropriately.
Step 2: Check output format
The nested user object is converted to JSON with its properties, and active boolean is converted to true without quotes.
Final Answer:
{"user":{"name":"Liam","age":34},"active":true} -> Option B
Quick Check:
Nested objects serialize correctly with -Depth [OK]

Quick Trick: Use -Depth to serialize nested objects fully [OK]
