The PS Script activity parameters can be provided by manual inserted values or via IN arguments or variables:

Image RemovedImage Added

Parameters:

  • Command (text box editor type) (type: string): 
    • the PowerShell inline script. This parameter takes precedence over the Script Code parameter. Without $using, a $a workflow variable (variable defined via workflow, visible in the Variables area) is not visible in the script. $Using imports the variable and its current value (e.g. {$a = $using:a+1; $a})
    • the Command editor has a syntax highlighting toggle, for displaying the lines according to the chosen language. In the example below, PowerShell was used:
      Image Removed
      Image Added
    • the user can also use an external editor of his/her choice via the button to the left of the edit field (Image Added). The external editor is by default Windows notepad, but it can be changed in the Designer Settings.

  • Password Name (text box editor type) (type: string): the name for the password variable used in the script. This is used in case of scripts that are using password variables, in order for a plain text password display to be avoided.
  • Password (password box editor type) (type: string): the value for the password that will be used in the script (encrypted).
  • Password Binding (text box editor type) (type: string): bind to a variable containing the encrypted password for the script.
  • Script Code (text box editor type) (type: string): the Powershell script code to be executed. For example: "mkdir 'C:\FlowsterSolutions'" (this command creates a folder with the specified path).
  • Script File (text box editor type) (type: string): the Powershell script file. This parameter takes precedence over the Command and the Script Code parameter.
  • Script Parameters (text box editor type) (type: string): the parameters that will be passed to the PowerShell code stored in a PowerShell script file. For multiple parameters, separate the values with comma ( , ). This parameter will take effect only when a script file is selected for execution.
