Calling PowerShell script on MID server - Support and Troubleshooting

Calling PowerShell script on MID server Summary In this example, we create a scheduled job that calls a PowerShell script stored on the MID server in the relative path scripts\.

Instructions 1. Sample PowerShell script:

#Variables:

$arg1 = $args[0]

$arg2 = $args[1]

#Do some processing

$DisplayName = $arg1 $arg2

#Display output

WriteHost "Display name output: " $DisplayName

2. Store the PowerShell script in the MID Server folder path: scrips

3. Create the following script in the instance to insert an ECC Queue record so that MID Server can process:

var arg1 = "variable 1" ; var arg2 = "variable 2" ; var ecc = new GlideRecord( "ecc_queue" ); ecc.initialize(); //to create record ecc.agent = "mid.server.YOUR_MIDSERVER_NAME" ; ecc.topic = "Command" ; var value = "powershell scripts\\myScript.ps1 " + arg1 + " " + arg2; ecc.payload = ' value="' + value + '"/> ' ; ecc.queue = "output" ; ecc.state = "ready" ; ecc.insert(); 4. Once the record is processed, the result of the script is written in the ECC Queue input.
