Add library set to a project

This script demonstrates how to programmatically add a library variable set to a project.

Usage

Provide values for the following:

  • Octopus URL
  • Octopus API Key
  • Name of the space to use
  • Name of the project
  • Name of the library set

# Get space
$space = (Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri "$octopusURL/api/spaces/all" -Headers $header) | Where-Object {$_.Name -eq $spaceName}

# Get project
