Hi Splunkers,

after you create and deploy an app.
After you complete the deployment process,
I want to run "myapps/ bin/test.exe --profile test" in a windows machine.
test.exe is a command line executable.
but i don't know how to run exe files.
also what should I write in inputs.conf.

Thank you.

I call a BAT script to install Sysmon and execute the Sysmon.exe. You could do something similiar:

inputs.conf
[script://.\bin\deploy.bat]
disabled = false

Run Once on Startup

interval = -1
index = your_Index_you_want_to_store_your_script_data

BAT and EXE file exist within the bin directory - App is on a Windows client machine. You will need to change your slashes depending on your environment.
