# Test-ProxmoxConnection
Tests a connection to a Proxmox VE server.
## Syntax
```powershell
Test-ProxmoxConnection
[-Connection <ProxmoxConnection>]
[-Detailed]
[<CommonParameters>]
```
## Description
The `Test-ProxmoxConnection` cmdlet tests if a connection to a Proxmox VE server is valid and active. If no connection is specified, the cmdlet will use the current default connection.
## Parameters
### -Connection
The connection to test. If not specified, the current default connection will be used.
```yaml
Type: ProxmoxConnection
Parameter Sets: (All)
Aliases:
Required: False
Position: 0
Default value: None
Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue)
Accept wildcard characters: False
```
### -Detailed
Return detailed connection information instead of a boolean.
```yaml
Type: SwitchParameter
Parameter Sets: (All)
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. For more information, see [about_CommonParameters](http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=113216).
## Inputs
### PSProxmox.Session.ProxmoxConnection
## Outputs
### System.Boolean
Returns `$true` if the connection is valid and active, `$false` otherwise.
### System.Management.Automation.PSObject
When the `-Detailed` parameter is specified, returns a custom object with detailed connection information.
## Notes
- If no connection is specified and no default connection exists, the cmdlet will return an error.
- The cmdlet tests the connection by making a simple API call to the Proxmox VE server.
## Examples
### Example 1: Test the current connection
```powershell
Connect-ProxmoxServer -Server "proxmox.example.com" -Credential (Get-Credential)
Test-ProxmoxConnection
```
This example tests the current default connection.
### Example 2: Test a specific connection
```powershell
$connection = Connect-ProxmoxServer -Server "proxmox.example.com" -Credential (Get-Credential)
Test-ProxmoxConnection -Connection $connection
```
This example tests a specific connection.
### Example 3: Get detailed connection information
```powershell
Connect-ProxmoxServer -Server "proxmox.example.com" -Credential (Get-Credential)
Test-ProxmoxConnection -Detailed
```
This example returns detailed information about the current default connection.
