In Powershell i get all checked out file from a library with 

foreach($f in $lib.CheckedOutFiles){ //I tried to retrieve item with $item = $lib.GetItemById($f.ListItemID)//exception item not retrieve }

How can i checkin spcheckedoutfile?

SOLUTION

I finally found a solution. For having item i have to do a TakeOverCheckOut before and after i can have item and file to checkin

foreach ($item in $lib.CheckedOutFiles) { write-Host $item.ListitemId $item.TakeOverCheckOut()//to retrieve item i have to do this before $doc = $lib.getItemById($item.ListitemId) $itemFile = $doc.File if($itemFile -ne $null){ $itemFile.CheckIn("Checked In By Administrator for achive") write-Host " Checked In" -ForeGroundColor Green } }

To check-in all files within a specific library, try this

$spWeb = Get-SPWeb http://yoursite/ $splist = $spWeb.Lists |? {$_.Title -eq "libname"} foreach ($item in $splist.Items) { if( $item.File.CheckOutStatus -ne "None" ) { $item.File.CheckIn("Checkedin") } } $spWeb.Dispose()

    Yes i use your solution for file already checked in in library but files that are not yet in library is not in items of library. You have to use .CheckedOutFiles. Commented Oct 9, 2016 at 19:47
