I have created an array to store elements of Ids of a Get-Process request.
$arr = [int64[]]::new(1000);
Here is the code to output the data
$process = Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.handles -gt 1000}
I want to select the column for IDs specifically, and here is the code below
$a = $process | Select-Object -Property Id
My question now is how do you store the data for $a inside the $arr
Why do you want to create the array and populate it as two steps? You can just cast the result of the pipeline to int64[].
But Select-Object -property Id doesn't get you a value you can cast to int64, so that will never work. You can just use ForEach-Object { $_.Id } instead, however.
$arr = [int64[]](Get-Process |
Where-Object { $_.handles -gt 1000 } |
ForEach-Object { $_.Id })
[int64[]] (Get-Process | Where-Object Handles -gt 1000 | ForEach-Object Id or even [int64[]] (Get-Process | Where-Object Handles -gt 1000).Id or, also for better performance, [int64[]] (Get-Process).Where({ $_.Handles -gt 1000 }).Id

$a = $process.IDgives you an array of process ID values. In a pipeline you can also use$process | Select-Object -ExpandProperty IDor$process | ForEach-Object ID.Int64, just do$a = [int64[]]$process.Id. What would be the point of creating a thousand item array and then trying to insert values into that afterwards?$a = [int64[]](Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.handles -gt 1000}).Id
