Looking to streamline your automations? In this week’s episode, we walk through how to set up the PowerShell Interpreter in Rewst, giving your scripts more flexibility and control.

Step by Step:
  1. Confirm the Microsoft Cloud integration bundle is enabled in Rewst.
  2. Select Exchange Online and Azure, then click Next.
  3. Choose the Rewst Microsoft Cloud Connector and review the permissions being applied.
  4. Click Authorize, select a Global Admin account, and accept the permissions.
  5. If Azure authorization errors appear, reauthorize until Graph, Exchange, and Azure all show as authorized.
  6. Navigate to Tools and then Interpreters.
  7. Under PowerShell, refresh the page if Azure initially shows as not installed until the configuration form appears.
  8. Review the Azure objects that were created, including the Rewst Microsoft Cloud Connector and its assigned permissions.
  9. Select the Azure subscription you want to use and prepare to assign or create a resource group.
  10. In Azure, go to Resource Groups and create a new group dedicated to the PowerShell interpreter.
  11. Name the resource group and choose a region, then review and create it.
  12. Return to Rewst, refresh subscriptions and resource groups, and select the newly created resource group.
  13. Click Deploy and allow time for the backend resources to be created.
  14. In Azure, verify that the deployment created a storage account, function app, application insights, and an app service plan.
  15. Open the Function App and review the webhook code used by Rewst to process interpreter requests.
  16. Return to Rewst and open the Live Editor.
  17. Switch the interpreter to PowerShell and provide test JSON input data.
  18. Access input values using the ctx object and confirm the PowerShell output returns the expected result.
  19. Navigate to Automations → Workflows and create a new workflow for testing.
  20. Add an action to retrieve a company from ConnectWise PSA.
  21. Add a Debug on Success action.
  22. In the debug text field, start with #ps to indicate PowerShell execution.
  23. Reference workflow variables using ctx.variable.path syntax and return the desired value.
  24. Run the workflow and verify the output matches the expected PowerShell result.
  25. Confirm the PowerShell interpreter is now functional in both the live editor and workflows.

I truly view ProVal as a partner and extension of my team, not as one of my vendors

When our NOC Manager left last fall we wanted to replace the position with an outsourced NOC to reduce headcount, and bring in an expert to both Labtech and our backup solutions. Bringing in ProVal Technologies was one of the best decisions we made last year and has paid for itself.During our first few monthly recurring Labtech admin meetings the ProVal team discovered incorrect settings and policies that were not applying correctly in our Labtech server. Things that we thought were automated and working were not. For example, there were multiple scripts and policies running but set to do nothing such as disk cleanup scripts. Cisco Umbrella was not configured correctly. Server alerting was not set right and the list went on.The backup team sends daily and weekly reports and updates that reduce my technicians time that we used to spend on backup or antivirus tickets that took forever and were tedious.ProVal also brings in great insights to our business and really cares about our success. They will frequently mention to me in meetings what new scripts they can import to make us more efficient or will schedule upgrades to our backups, Labtech, etc so I don’t have to worry. I truly view ProVal as a partner and extension of my team not as one of my vendors.

They will quickly become an extension of your team and your ROI will reflect the results

We have been a long time user of Labtech and had tried for many years to manage the product internally with no real success at the level we needed to make our solutions more efficient for our customers. Once we hired Vikram and his team at ProVal, it solved all our pain points with the product and we really felt like we were leveraging the tool as it was designed. If this sounds like you and it’s keeping you up at night, then you need these guys. They will quickly become an extension of your team and your ROI will reflect the results.

They work well, fast and on budget

We met Vikram from ProVal Tech at Gary Pica’s Shnizzfest a year ago. Vikram explained the advantage of having trained, certified personnel take care of our recent Automate implementation. Even though we had taken an implementation package from ConnectWise to start up the program, we felt many custom configurations we needed for our business were lacking. We hired ProVal Tech after Automate was installed to help us with this task. From sales to technicians everyone was professional and knowledgeable. Onboarding was simple, and well documented. Tools on the web were supplied while we did the work, and they allowed us to track what was done, and see the improvements in the environment. It was easy to reach any of the team members, for any concern or question – all answered with courtesy and smile. Once the work was finished, we were given some training and explanations, add to that documentation, about the work and the scripts and features added to the program. We have been happily working with Automate since then. We can only recommend this efficient team of people for any work into Automate: they work well, fast and on budget.
