How to run a powershell script on specific computer with arguments passed from dashboard?

[batuhankutluca]

Hi,

I have a deployment app that runs a powershell script on computers. It also send outputs of powershell script to a specific index. So far so good. Now what I want to do is lets assume I have 5 computers that SplunkUF is installed. And my custom deployment app is deployed on these 5 computers. So It means If I set up interval of my script to 5 min, my script runs on these 5 computers and passes output to my indexer. I want to create a dashboard with a dropdown menu and a textbox. Dropdown menu contains these 5 computers and It is to select which computer that I want to run script on. I really don't know If splunk allows me to do that but assume It is doable. Next step is assume again i have 5 scripts in my deployment app. I select a computer from dropdown menu and type "testscript1.ps1" to textbox to determine which script will run on a specific computer. I dug up splunk answers but couldn't find any related question. So If you have any idea about how can I achieve that, please let me know!

Thanks in advance.

This is all VERY doable and quite fun. Download the Dashboard Examples app and it will demonstrate everything that you need:

Or go through this documentation:

Why do you call it fun Mr.Woodcock? It's just a thing I want to achieve. Also I couldn't find a proper dashboard related with my topic from the app. Actually giving some ideas about passing parameters to a deployed script could be more helpful. I think that's all I need tho.

The app shows you exactly how to do what you need to do. I think that learning is fun.
