The `AiAgent` parameter accepts either the name of an AI agent or an AI agent object from `Get-PSUAiAgent`. Additional values supplied through `Parameters` are serialized and passed to the agent job as supplemental parameters. PowerShell Universal still enforces execute permission and any roles assigned directly to the target AI agent. ## EXAMPLES ### Example 1 ```powershell PS C:\> Invoke-PSUAiAgent -AiAgent SupportAgent -Prompt "Summarize the deployment status." ``` Starts a prompt job for the `SupportAgent` AI agent. ### Example 2 ```powershell PS C:\> Get-PSUAiAgent -Name SupportAgent | Invoke-PSUAiAgent -Prompt "Draft a response for the ticket." -Parameters @{ TicketId = 42; Customer = 'Contoso' } ``` Invokes the piped AI agent object and passes additional job parameters that the agent can use when building its response. ### Example 3 ```powershell PS C:\> Invoke-PSUAiAgent -AiAgent SupportAgent -Prompt "Summarize the deployment status." -Wait ``` Starts a prompt job for the `SupportAgent` AI agent and waits for it to complete, returning the agent's response instead of the job object. ### Example 4 ```powershell PS C:\> Invoke-PSUAiAgent -AiAgent SupportAgent -Prompt "Summarize the deployment status." -Wait -WaitTimeout 60 ``` Waits up to 60 seconds for the agent job to complete. Throws a timeout exception if the job does not finish within the allotted time. ## PARAMETERS ### -AiAgent Specifies the AI agent to invoke. You can pass the AI agent name directly or pipe an AI agent object returned by `Get-PSUAiAgent`. ```yaml Type: Object Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Name Required: True Position: 0 Default value: None Accept pipeline input: True (ByValue) Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Prompt Specifies the prompt to send to the AI agent. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: True Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Parameters Specifies additional user-defined parameters to pass to the AI agent job. Each key becomes a job parameter and each value is serialized as PowerShell CliXml before execution. ```yaml Type: Hashtable Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -ComputerName The HTTP address of the PSU Management API server. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Uri Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -AppToken An app token to access the PSU Management API. ```yaml Type: String Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Credential Specifies the credential used when authenticating to the PSU Management API. ```yaml Type: PSCredential Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -UseDefaultCredentials Uses the current Windows identity when authenticating to the PSU Management API. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Integrated Executes the command internally rather than using the Management API. This only works when running inside PowerShell Universal. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -TrustCertificate Disables TLS certificate validation for Management API requests. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Cookies Uses the current PSU cookie container for authentication. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -Wait Waits for the AI agent job to complete and returns its output rather than the job object. When specified, the command will block until the job finishes or the timeout is reached. ```yaml Type: SwitchParameter Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: None Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ### -WaitTimeout Specifies the maximum number of seconds to wait for the job to complete when using `-Wait`. If the timeout is reached, the command throws a timeout exception. ```yaml Type: Int32 Parameter Sets: (All) Aliases: Required: False Position: Named Default value: 0 Accept pipeline input: False Accept wildcard characters: False ``` ## INPUTS ### System.Object You can pipe an AI agent object from `Get-PSUAiAgent` or pass an agent name string. ## OUTPUTS ### PowerShellUniversal.Job Returns the prompt job created for the AI agent invocation. ## NOTES Additional connection parameters are inherited from `GrpcCommand`. ## PERMISSIONS The access token requires `intelligence.agents/execute` to run this cmdlet remotely. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.devolutions.net/powershell-universal/powershell-commands/invoke-psuaiagent.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
