Gets the extended type data in the current session. The Get-TypeData cmdlet gets the extended type data in the current session. This includes type data that was added to the session by Types.ps1xml file and dynamic type data that was added by using the parameter of the Update-TypeData cmdlet. You can use the extended type data that Get-TypeData returns to examine the type data in the session and send it to the Update-TypeData and Remove-TypeData cmdlets. Extended type data adds properties and methods to objects in PowerShell. You can use the added properties and methods in the same ways that you would use the properties and methods that are defined in the object type. However, when writing scripts, be aware that the added properties and methods might not be present in every PowerShell session. For more information about Types.ps1xml files, see about_Types.ps1xml. For more information about dynamic type data that the Update-TypeData cmdlet adds, see Update-TypeData. This cmdlet was introduced in Windows PowerShell 3.0.
