Execute PowerShell

Automatically launch a PowerShell script at a certain time or when certain conditions are met. Plus, ThinkAutomation will enhance the given PowerShell possibilities further by enabling smooth, subsequent automations in third-party systems.

Execute PowerShell – overview

• ThinkAutomation provides an open-ended automation studio from which you can orchestrate connections, conditions, and automations via a drag and drop GUI
• The inbuilt PowerShell action will execute a Windows PowerShell command or script file, then return the response to a ThinkAutomation variable for further processing
• As part of your workflow, you can enter the PowerShell Command or specify PowerShell Script File
• For PowerShell Commands, you can either specify the command and its parameters or you can specify the command only and then provide parameter names and values
• You can then select the variable that you want the response/results to be assigned to, which can be used to trigger subsequent conditional actions as needed
