Our annual DiRT testing takes place this weekend.  We're not Google by any means but it's just as important to us.  The whole company gets involved in one form...

I was torn on creation. Perhaps, especially as you need to specify a location. Ideally you drop audit data in a read/insert spot, and not a place where modify permissions...

Don't know that I'd disable it, but it is only for local connections by default. You can avoid allowing remote access, but still have local access if your server gets...

OK, I played with this a bit and got this to work:

$dt = get-date -format "_yyyyMMMdd_HHmss"

Invoke-Sqlcmd -Query "SELECT * FROM [dbo].[Customer]" -ServerInstance "Plato\SQL2017" -Database "Sandbox" |
