Posted on by jagg 2

Hi,
I'm new to Power Automate and just want to add my first automation and struggle with that...

What Power Automate should do:

1) Run PowerShell (with admin privilegs)

2) execute the command cup all -y

 

Thanks

    Hi,

     

    Please refer to this post I have answered before. Since when running PowerShell as Admin, you can't interact with it via PAD, so that you have to do some workaround steps.

    Thanks and hope it can help you. 

    Mike
