While putting together a few Automox Worklets, I found I wanted a quick way to tell whether a worklet had been processed by a remote agent (vs. combing through logs 😇).

I cobbled together a hasty email snippet to drop into the Evaluation Code window (this prolly should be placed before any real evaluation code block to ensure exit codes don’t overstep this snippet).

🙈🙉🙊

Example email:

Evaluation code:

<# Grab some system variables to pump into the email alert (as an example). #>



$Hostname = $env:COMPUTERNAME.ToUpper()

$HostDomain = $env:USERDOMAIN.ToUpper()

$HostWindowsVersion = (Get-WmiObject -class Win32_OperatingSystem).Caption.ToUpper()

$HostWindowsBuild = (Get-WmiObject -class Win32_OperatingSystem).Version.ToUpper()



<# Build a message body. #>

   

$smtpHTMLBody = 

@"
