##Useful Scripts## ###GetTCBuildStatus.ps1### Pings the TeamCity installation and gets the status of the build. This script uses the getConfigs lib function with 2 separate config files

<configuration>
	<scriptSettings>
		<add key="username" value="XXXXXXX"/>
		<add key="password" value="YYYYYYY"/>
	</scriptSettings>

####GetTCBuildStatus.build.config#### This config file takes a unique build label and the build number you want to query. You can find the build number on your TeamCity installation. Check the query string links for the build.
