Flex Integration - Events Not Capturing and Script Failing with Exit Status Code 1

[amaykulkarni-tech]

Hi everyone,

We've successfully implemented the Flex integration, but we're facing an issue where the events we're trying to capture aren't showing up.

When we manually run the command defined in the Flex YAML file, it executes correctly and returns the expected output. However, when Flex runs the same command, it fails with the error: exit status code 1.

Here’s what we've verified so far:

1. The Execution Policy is set to Unrestricted, so we don’t believe the issue is related to script execution permissions.
2. We’ve confirmed that the New Relic Infrastructure service account has read access to the script file.

Has anyone encountered something similar or have any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Below is our Sample Flex file:-

integrations:

• name: nri-flex
  interval: 60s
  timeout: 45s
  config:
  name: Test-sample
  apis:
  - event_type: Test-sample
  shell: powershell
  commands:
  - run: 'powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -NoProfile -File "C:/Program Files/New Relic/newrelic-infra/integrations.d/sample.ps1"'
  timeout: 30

Appreciate any help!

Thank You,
Amay

Could you share the content of sample.ps1 script?

[amaykulkarni-tech]

@sairaj18 Please find the content of sample.ps1 script.

Note: In case of eventID, please use any eventId under system logs to test the script.

$eventLog = 'system'
$eventID = ****
$events = Get-WinEvent -FilterHashtable @{LogName=$eventLog; Id=$eventID} -MaxEvents 10
$eventData = $events | foreach-object {

@{
    TimeCreated = $_.TimeCreated.ToString()
    Id          = $_.Id
    levelDisplayName= $_.levelDisplayName
    Message     = $_.Message
    Provider = $_.ProviderName
    MachineName = $_.MachineName
    RecordId = $_.RecordId
}

}

Output JSON for NewRelic integration
