Run the Add-On with PowerShell

First, provide a path to your add-on followed by script parameters with their values. Each parameter is preceded with a dash; a space separates a parameter name from its value. You can skip some parameters— the script uses a default value unless you explicitly define one. If necessary, modify the parameters as required.

To run the add-on with PowerShell:

Step 1 – On the computer where you want to execute the add-on, start Windows PowerShell.

Step 2 – Enter a path to the add-on, or drag and drop the add-on file into the console window.

Step 3 – Add script parameters. The console looks similar to the following:

PS C:\Users\AddOnUser> C:\Add-ons\Netwrix_Auditor_Event_Log_Export_Add-on.ps1 - NetwrixAuditorHost 172.28.6.15

NOTE: If the script path contains spaces (e.g., C:\Netwrix Add-ons), embrace it in double quotes and insert the ampersand (&) symbol in front (e.g., & "C:\Netwrix Add-ons").

Step 4 – Hit Enter.

Depending on the number of Activity Records stored in Netwrix Auditor Audit Database execution may take a while. Ensure the script execution completed successfully. Netwrix Auditor creates the Integration event log and fills it with events.

By default, the add-on sets the Netwrix Auditor Integration event log size to 1GB and the retention to "Overwrite events as needed".
