machine inventory - a saga

Hi folks, I am having problems integrating the Splunk Addon for Powershell. My goal is that I want to run a process that collections machine data once a day at a specific time across all my systems; then feed the data to a dashboard for reporting. I've tried the Splunk_TA_Windows installedapps.bat file, but that does not collect the right information. I also tried WinHOSTMon which does get the data but has a field extraction issue with the DisplayName field, and further has been deprecated as of 6.3. I am now using poweshell and am having problems. Below is my input syntax: # this should run every 5 minutes for testing and QC of the dashboard. [powershell://installedapps] script = . "$SplunkHome\etc\apps\Splunk_TA_windows\bin\installedapps.ps1" index = windows interval = 0 /5 * ? * ? * sourcetype = powershell:installedapps disabled = false The input runs the following poweshell command: Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Product | Format-List -Property Name,InstallDate,InstallLocation,PackageCache,Vendor,Version,IdentifyingNum The results are not being populated in my index. I'm getting GUID's and the following formatEntryInfo="Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Internal.Format.ListViewEntry" outOfBand="False" writeErrorStream="False" What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
