Alerting

Running a Powershell Script through alerts?

Sebbo
Engager

Morning all,

 

I have a Powershell 2 script that sends an email to people when my alert is triggered. I can't use an the email action as my network doesn't have internet connection. When the alert is triggered, it's not automatically running the script. The script works, as I've ran it independently from Splunk and the email has been sent. Is the format wrong, or am I missing something?

Thanks in advance!
