How do you change a document's Application Association in Powershell?

Update-PWDocumentProperties can do it, but it's a bit convoluted.

first build a list of documents that you want, and be sure to do a -getattributes with it

$doclist = Get-PWDocumentsBySearch -FolderPath 'path\to\files' -Filename '%.pdf' -getattributes

Next update the ApplicationID on each document (don't update the ApplicationName!) you can get a list of application IDs with get-pwapplications

foreach ($doc in $doclist) { $doc.ApplicationID = new_id }

Then update the set of documents

Update-PWDocumentProperties -InputDocument $doclist
