Monitor Windows Scheduled Tasks

Hello Dominik!

I was looking at our application template, and there's currently not a way to modify the template to be configured in the way you're requesting. However, the data gathered by this component can be gathered via powershell see (Get-ScheduledTask ) and then ingested through the powershell monitor in SAM Create a Windows PowerShell monitor  and then displayed using a custom table widget. That should give you more control to limit what is monitored.

Also - this might be a candidate for you to put into our feature request forum! Server & Application Monitor Feature Requests

Thank you for your answer. I will try to test this if this fix my needs.

serena  been trying to use get-scheduledtasks but unfortunately solarwinds does not seem to be able to run an elevated powershell session as it cannot see scheduled tasks created by other users.
