Powershell Script execution using Schdule tasks - powershell

Question

I need to go over a list of web services and query them individually and pull the details and store it into the database, I designed the code in the following way
Script 1 connects to the SNOW and pulls in the list of web servcies that i need to connect and loops them through the list and triggers a "Start-ThreadJob" with the service name as an argument
Scipt 2 connects to that specific web service (received as an argument) and connects to it and pull in the data and reports it to the database.
When i run the script 1 manually The script 1 is successfully calling all the required web services and the data is being reported to the database, however when i try to call the script 1 using the windows schdule task, The script 1 executes but the script 2 is not being triggered.
do i need to set
Any specific excution policies
Scope
Any inputs is appreciated, Here is an example for how the script 1 and 2 looks
Script 1
