Search scopes are often created to refine the results returned on SharePont Search. I’ve written this small snippet of PowerShell as an easy way to get a report on all Scopes. I decided not to embelish it, and keep it quick and (not too) dirty, here goes:

$a = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication #grabs Content and Query
$scopes = $a | Get-SPEnterpriseSearchQueryScope
 
foreach ($Scope in $scopes)
{
write-host $Scope.name
write-host "=======================";
$scope.Rules  #outputs all the rules
}
