I think this is final. I tested it and works for me.

Scheduled Job

var ecc = new GlideRecord("ecc_queue");
ecc.initialize();
ecc.agent = "mid.server.XXXX";
ecc.topic = "Powershell";
ecc.name = "Windows - Powershell";
ecc.source = "10.XXXX";
ecc.queue = "output";
ecc.state = "ready";
ecc.payload = this._getPayloadString();
ecc.insert();

function _getPayloadString() {
    var xmldoc = new XMLDocument("<parameters/>");
    var el = xmldoc.createElement("parameter");
    xmldoc.setCurrent(el);	
    xmldoc.setAttribute("name", "skip_sensor");
    xmldoc.setAttribute("value", "true");

    xmldoc.setCurrent(xmldoc.getDocumentElement());
    el = xmldoc.createElement("parameter");
    xmldoc.setCurrent(el);
    xmldoc.setAttribute("name", "probe_name");
    xmldoc.setAttribute("value", "Windows - Powershell");

    xmldoc.setCurrent(xmldoc.getDocumentElement());
    el = xmldoc.createElement("parameter");
    xmldoc.setCurrent(el);
    xmldoc.setAttribute("name", "MIDScriptFile");

    xmldoc.setAttribute("value", _getScriptFilePath('e517b060db36d010d97f50aadc96191a'));
	
	xmldoc.setCurrent(xmldoc.getDocumentElement());
    el = xmldoc.createElement("parameter");
    xmldoc.setCurrent(el);
    xmldoc.setAttribute("name", "powershell_param_appid");
    xmldoc.setAttribute("value", '10555');

    return xmldoc.toString();
}

function _getScriptFilePath(file_id) {
    var scriptPath = '';
    var gr = new GlideRecord('ecc_agent_script_file');
    if (gr.get(file_id)) {
        var path = '';
        while (!gs.nil(gr)) {
            path = gs.nil(path) ? gr.name : gr.name + '\\' + path;
            gr = gr.parent;
        }

        scriptPath = 'scripts\\' + path;
    }

    return scriptPath;
}

$requestVersion = "vcode_request_version_1"

$method = 'GET'
$id = "$appid"
$urlBase = "xxx.xxxx.com"

$urlPath = "/api/5.0/getappinfo.do?app_id=$id"
$url="https://xxx.xxx.com/api/5.0/getappinfo.do?app_id=$id"

you can add like $appid = "$appid"

on mid server script instead of app_id=2265551 use app_id=$appid

on your powershell activity use something like below in Powershell script variable section

{
"appid" : "2265551"
}

if it's variable or field than you can do

{
"appid" : "${current.variables.XXXX}"
}
