# Test-CredentialStoreItem
## SYNOPSIS
Checks if the given RemoteHost identifier combination exists in the credential store.
## SYNTAX
### Private (Default)
```
Test-CredentialStoreItem -RemoteHost <String> [-Identifier <String>] [<CommonParameters>]
```
### Shared
```
Test-CredentialStoreItem [-Path <String>] -RemoteHost <String> [-Identifier <String>] [-Shared]
[<CommonParameters>]
```
## DESCRIPTION
Use this cmdlet for basic checks with a single item.
Check the item first with this function before
you try to interact with it.
> :bulb: Breaking Change for \`v1.1.0+\`:
>
> Test-CredentialStoreItem will return \`$false\` even if the store doesn't exist.
> We removed the terminating
> error and replaced it with a warning message.
## EXAMPLES
### EXAMPLE 1
```
if (Test-CredentialStoreItem -RemoteHost "Default") {
Get-CredentialStoreItem -RemoteHost "Default"
}
else {
Write-Warning ("The given Remote Host {0} does not exist in the credential Store!" -f $RemoteHost)
}
```
## PARAMETERS
### -Identifier
Adds an optional identifier to the given RemoteHost.
Makes it possible to store multiple credentials
for a single host.
```yaml
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -Path
Define a custom credential store you try to read from.
Without the \`-Path\` parameter
\`Test-CredentialStoreItem\` tries to read from the default private store.
```yaml
Type: String
Parameter Sets: Shared
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: "{0}\PSCredentialStore\CredentialStore.json" -f $env:ProgramData
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -RemoteHost
Specify the host, for which you would like to change the credentials.
```yaml
Type: String
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: True
Position: Named
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -Shared
Switch to shared mode with this param.
This enforces the command to work with a shared CredentialStore which
can be decrypted across systems.
```yaml
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: Shared
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: Named
Default value: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### CommonParameters
This cmdlet supports the common parameters: -Debug, -ErrorAction, -ErrorVariable, -InformationAction, -InformationVariable, -OutVariable, -OutBuffer, -PipelineVariable, -Verbose, -WarningAction, and -WarningVariable.
