Question

What would I need to do in order to run a PowerShell script in an SSIS package?

Does PowerShell need to be installed on the SQL server?
How do I actually call the script in SSIS?

Thanks

Yes, PowerShell needs to be installed. Then, you can use an Execute Process Task to point to the PowerShell executable and give the script as an argument.

Like so:

Executable: %windir%\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Arguments:  C:\path\to\script.ps1
