A common issue arises when configuring ControlUp triggers for FSLogix profile event handling, particularly with the new Windows Event Log Monitoring feature in ControlUp Digital Employee Experience (DEX). A user setting up a trigger based on FSLogix event ID 999 (ControlUp-FSLogixProfileLocked) noticed that although the event appeared in the local Windows event log, the associated trigger action (such as running a script on profile lock) did not execute. After enabling the new Windows Event handling and creating a corresponding filter for event 999 in the ControlUp web console, the event was correctly detected, and the action was attempted but failed with the error: "Script execution failed: CUTriggerObject is not available. This script must be run from a ControlUp trigger." The root cause relates to how the new DEX Windows Event Log Monitoring selectively forwards events based on collection rules. By default, custom events like event 999 are not included in these rules and thus remain only in the local event log, preventing real-time triggers from detecting them. When such events are collected through DEX, the script execution context differs—in particular, the `$CUTriggerObject` scripting object (which provides event details like username and machine name) is not available in scripts run through DEX event filters. This causes the script failure because it expects this object to be populated. The solution is to add a DEX rule that explicitly collects event 999 to allow monitoring and alerting, but continue using the imported Real-Time trigger for executing the FSLogix logoff script. This trigger runs in the correct context and has access to `$CUTriggerObject`, allowing the script to function as intended. The presence of the event in the web console and receiving email notifications after adding the DEX rule demonstrate that events are collected, but only the real-time trigger can correctly handle the associated script action. Also, users should verify their scripts have the "Execute with.NET engine" option enabled to ensure proper script execution. This issue does not stem from permissions or account misconfiguration but from the distinct operational contexts between DEX event filtering and real-time triggers.
