How can you invoke a PowerShell script using UiPath?

Invoking a PowerShell script using UiPath is most efficiently accomplished through the Invoke Power Shell activity. This activity is specifically designed to execute PowerShell commands and scripts seamlessly within the UiPath workflow environment. It allows for running scripts while providing options to pass arguments and manage the execution environment effectively.

Using the Invoke Power Shell activity streamlines the process by integrating directly into UiPath, which means you can easily acquire outputs from the script, handle errors, and interact with the PowerShell environment as part of your robotic process automation. This method ensures that the integration of PowerShell scripts within UiPath workflows is straightforward and user-friendly.

Other methods mentioned, while possible, do not inherently take advantage of the automation capabilities provided by UiPath. Executing a script through a command line interface requires additional steps for integration and may lack the error handling and data management that the Invoke Power Shell activity offers. The Run script action does not specifically target PowerShell scripts effectively. Importing a script as a library can be a complex process and may not work as intended without proper setup, making it less ideal for direct execution scenarios.
