[BUG] Remove-PnPContentType - Try Catch Doesn't Work Properly

[robertcaretta]

Reporting an Issue or Missing Feature

When using Remove-PnPContentType and Remove-PnPContentTypeFromList the errors do not cause the catch action to fire properly. So I am unable to log the results properly. If there is a work-around please let me know.

Expected behavior

When the cmdlets error, the catch action should trigger so I can log the action properly and/or take a different action.

Actual behavior

When the action fails it doesn't register as an error that can be caught by try catch.
I am marking the site content type as editable properly before removal attempts as well.

Steps to reproduce behavior

try { Remove-PnPContentType -Identity $_.Name -Force -Verbose $msg = "SUCCESS | Site CT Removed | $SiteURL | CT: $($_.Name)" Write-Host $msg Write-Log -LogFile $logFile -LogMessage $msg } catch { $msg = "ERROR | Site CT Not Removed | $SiteURL | CT: $($_.Name)" Write-Host $msg Write-Log -LogFile $logFile -LogMessage $msg } finally { Clear-Variable msg }

What is the version of the Cmdlet module you are running?

@robertcaretta - This is unlikely a PnP issue.

The Remove-PnPContentType is not a terminating error. What is the value of your $ErrorActionPreference in the session?
Try to put a -ErrorAction Stop at the end of the Remove-PnPContentType command.
