powerJobs Processor v27

v27.0.4

13-08-2026

Fixed

• Compatibility issues with third-party assemblies and with Vault add-ins from other software vendors:

  • Dependencies of our Job Processor and Vault Client extensions are now installed in dedicated subfolders instead of directly in the Vault extensions directory. This prevents Vault from resolving them by mistake.

  • Add-Type cmdlet: jobs compiling C# code failed on Job Processor 2026 due to compatibility issues with Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp.dll.
    The isolated assembly loading mechanism from versions prior to 26.0.9 has been restored for Job Processor 2026 and later.
    
    

• Issue where jobs compiling C# code could fail on Job Processor 2026 and 2027 when VDS is not installed (Add-Type: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Vault Client ...\Explorer\ref').

• Assembly loading conflicts when importing cross-platform modules such as Microsoft Graph and Azure on Job Processor 2026 and 2027 (Import-Module: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.ApplicationInsights, ... Assembly with same name is already loaded).

• Issue where PowerJobsProcessor window caused very high CPU load after the Vault 2027.1 Update

• Issue that prevented custom applications built against version v26.0 of powerJobs.Common.dll from loading in Job Processor environments for Vault 2024 and Vault 2025.

General

• Job scripts are now executed on a single STA thread:
  Besides improved stability with COM-based applications like Inventor, Inventor Server, and DWG TrueView, this also enables the use of custom STA-based COM objects like AutoCAD and Microsoft Office
  without the need for previously required settings like Invoke-Script -ApartmentState STA or manually created STA runspaces ([RunSpaceFactory]::CreateRunspace()).

Breaking Changes

Developers of Custom Applications – Update the powerJobs.Common reference:

Existing Visual Studio projects developed for the Job Processor 2024 or 2025 may fail to build because powerJobs.Common.dll is no longer installed in the GAC.
Update the project reference by adding a HintPath to C:\Program Files\coolOrange\Modules\powerJobs\powerJobs.Common.dll.

v27.0.3

05-06-2026

Features

• Add-PdfWatermark now supports specifying an offset via the -OffsetX and -OffsetY parameters.

Fixed

• Improved assembly loading of Autodesk assemblies for compatibility with powerVault version: 27.0.3.
  Open-Document now explicitly loads the required Inventor, InventorServer and DWG TrueView assemblies from the Vault Client installation directory only when required (especially outside the Job Processor, e.g. PowerShell ISE and PowerShell 7 Console).

• Issue with Add-PdfWatermark and Add-PdfQRCode where the cmdlets failed when DevExpress.* assemblies with a different version were already preloaded, for example in Vault 2024 and 2025 when running Autodesk.Vault.UpdateRevisionBlock.dwg or Autodesk.Vault.SyncProperties jobs beforehand.

• Issue that prevented InventorServer from being used with Open-Document and Export-Document when running scripts in PowerShell Console or PowerShell IDEs, such as PowerShell ISE and VS Code.

General

• Improved Open-Document error message when Inventor fails to start, clarifying that startup dialogs, missing license confirmation, or incorrect Windows registration may be the cause

• Updated Licensing to version: 18.4.14

• Updated shared third-party PostSharp Diagnostics libraries to version 2026.0.9 to ensure compatibility with other products

• Updated third-party DevExpress assemblies to version 25.2.7

• Updated internally used installer framework

v27.0.2

20-04-2026

General

• Added support for Vault, Inventor and DWG TrueView 2027

• Internal refactoring of the setup and installation process. powerAPS cmdlets are no longer installed with powerJobs Processor and are now part of coolOrange powerGate.

• Removed the powerAPS.Cmdlets logger section from powerJobs Processor.log4net (logging for APS cmdlets is controlled by powerGate.log4net).

• Updated Licensing to version: 18.4.11.
