How can I run SQL Server Vulnerability Assessment from a SQL Job? I want to run SQL Server Vulnerability Assessment from a SQL Server Agent Job. Currently, I am attempting a job with a PowerShell script and am running a command like the one below. 

Invoke-SqlVulnerabilityAssessmentScan -ServerInstance $(ESCAPE_DQUOTE(SRVR)) -Database AdventureWorks


I have confirmed that Invoke-SqlVulnerabilityAssessmentScan is available on the SQL Server (I can run it from the PowerShell command prompt there), but when I run my job, I receive an error stating that  


  The term 'Invoke-SqlVulnerabilityAssessmentScan' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet


After looking at this Microsoft article, I am wondering if SQL Agent only has a subset of PowerShell cmdlets that it can access.

How can I run the vulnerability assessment scan from a SQL Job?
You are getting that error because the module is not imported.

You have to use 

import-module -name sqlserver  # or path to the module
