How to run PowerShell script from ServiceNow?

Hi,

I have a PowerShell script(.ps1) which imports the user ID's from the active directory and creates a csv file in Mid Server folder. Today I am running the script manually using the command prompt(PS>.\filename.ps1). This script file is in E:\Abc\ folder.

How can I run this command or directly execute the PowerShell script from ServiceNow so that csv created with user ID's in Mid Server?

Is anyone implemented similar solutions? Can you please advise?

I think i have done this in past for a .BAT file , Very Old Days.

You can use Windows Task Scheduler to Schedule your script to RUN. TRY this way.

Hello, @Hima Pallela ,

We create our own PowerShell Discovery Probes and Sensors by copying factory Discovery Probes and Sensors. You can likely do the same for your own needs.

Example

Here are two examples of Trigger Probes that launch our own PowerShell Discovery Probes.

One of our Trigger Probes runs an ad-hoc PowerShell script and places the results in the Comments field of the associated server device.

Here is the Discovery Probe.

Here is the ad-hoc PowerShell script.

Here is the Discovery Sensor.

Does this help you?
