How to call the svcutil exe from PowerShell?

Question

Is there a way I can call the svcutil exe from PowerShell? I need to automate this process through scripting.

It should just work if the containing directory is on your PATH. If not, try `$env:PATH += ";C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0\Bin"` — Burt_Harris, Sep 28 '16 at 00:39
I use svcutil to provision/deprovision the database. I have a UI that checks for any changes and if yes i update it manually. I am unable to write a script for the same. — dsingh23, Oct 03 '16 at 20:46

You can run any .exe file with this method :

Start-Process -FilePath 'C:\FileAddress\File.exe'

it's very simple
