**Tools for PowerShell V4**  
**Example 1: Returns status information for the trail with name 'myExampleTrail'. Returned data includes information on delivery errors, Amazon SNS and Amazon S3 errors, and start and stop logging times for the trail.

```
Get-CTTrailStatus -Name myExampleTrail
```
**Example 2: Returns status information for a trail that was created in a region other than the current shell default (in this case, the Frankfurt (eu-central-1) region).**  

```
Get-CTTrailStatus -Name myExampleTrail -Region eu-central-1
```
