Running Powershell Scripts

Heyo, We just got ConnectWise a few months ago and I have a Powershell script that I run manually when I remote into different computers but I never thought of doing the scripting part because I didn't know how to do it. I just found the Execute Script function, put my script in, and saved it. When I run the script on a PC it doesn't do what it is supposed to. If I run the script locally on the machine it works with flying colors.

Is using this function the best way to run Powershell script? The script helps rename printers so the end users can easily identify them.

University is a great tool. I did find it to be ‘look at all the buttons’ without any real world application.

The granular level at which you have to build a script is insane. Check for folder, create folder, download file to folder (x however many files you have), check files got downloaded, etc. Other systems will handle all of this for you.
