How do I run the Splunk CLI command using the scripted input and the path file?

We have Windows servers blocked for executing batch scripts.

So, how do I run the below Splunk CLI command scheduled everyday on universal forwarders and index that data?
Splunk btool inputs list --debug

I thought to create a scripted input and use the .path file to run the command, but it is not working.

inputs.conf
[script://.\bin\xyz.path]

And create a path file xyz.path under bin directory of the app.

xyz.path contails below line

$SPLUNK_HOME\bin\splunk btool inputs list --debug

Is there any other way to do it on UF's
