Getting Node name and placing it in a powershell script variable

I have a WIndows Powershell component in a template. This is my first time using Powershell with Orion and I want to know how I can get the NODE name that is being tested and bring it into the script that runs during the test.

I have the SWIS SDK installed on the Orion server per SW Support.

If you have any questions please let me know.

Thank you,

Mike

Lots of great examples on github. Take a look through some, they just recently added a Powershell example to update captions which may be close to what you need. This is also a great resource for SWQL and the SDK in general.

I couldn't find an example of what I am trying to do there. Thanks for the suggestion.

I have already seen that page. It is very close however, all I need is to know if I run a script in the windows powershell monitor template, how do I put the currently tested node name or caption into a variable in the powershell script.

I have several nodes that will be using this template and need to differentiate which one is being tested currently. then I can put the logic in the script.
