In an ActiveDirectory Export I want the mail adresses in all lowercase, I know about ToLower() but I'm struggling putting it in the right place:
(Powershell)
Get-ADUser
-SearchBase "OU=11-something,DC=somethingelse,DC=somethingelser"
-Filter {somefilters} -Properties name,mail
|Select-Object Name,(mail).ToLower()
| Export-Csv -Path "D:\Path"
-Encoding UTF8 -NoTypeInformation
Is it even possible with Get-ADUser ?
You can customize the Select-Object output using a calculated property:
Get-ADUser -SearchBase "OU=11-something,DC=somethingelse,DC=somethingelser"
-Filter {somefilters} -Properties name,mail
|Select-Object Name,#{N="Email";E={$_.mail.ToLower()}}
| Export-Csv -Path "D:\Path"
-Encoding UTF8 -NoTypeInformation

I have a list of users in a CSV, but I need to collect the SamAccount attribute from each user by name in the ad.
CSV model
Script
Get-ADObject -Filter 'ObjectClass -eq "user" -and userAccountControl -eq "512"' -Properties * | Select-Object SamAccountName,CN,DisplayName, | Export-CSV -Path C:\Temp\UserAccounts.csv -Encoding UTF8 -NoTypeInformation
I'm a little lost I don't know how to do a foreach using name
I am trying but without success.
Trying to get samaccountname based on Name on csv file.
Import-Csv -Path C:\Temp\userteste.csv | foreach-Object {Get-ADUser -Filter {Name -like $_.name} -Properties Name | Select-Object samAccountName}
and export to csv file.
Why use Get-ADObject and not Get-ADUser for this? The latter gives you more of the desired properties you need in the CSV.
As aside, it is wasteful to do -Properties * if all you want is a small set of user attributes.
Something like this should work:
Get-ADUser -Filter "Enabled -eq $true" -Properties DisplayName, CN |
Select-Object SamAccountName, CN, DisplayName |
Export-Csv -Path C:\Temp\UserAccounts.csv -Encoding UTF8 -NoTypeInformation
As per your comment you need to get some extra attributes of the users listed in the CSV, you can do this:
Import-Csv -Path C:\Temp\userteste.csv | ForEach-Object {
Get-ADUser -Filter "Name -like '$($_.Name)'" -Properties DisplayName, CN |
Select-Object SamAccountName, CN, DisplayName
} | Export-Csv -Path C:\Temp\UserAccounts.csv -Encoding UTF8 -NoTypeInformation
Hope that helps
I'm executing a Get-ADComputer and trying to iterate through a loop that pulls computer names from individual rooms. I'm trying to output each room to a different Excel sheet.
I'm running PowerShell Version 5:
$results = for($room=102; $room -le 110; $room++) {
Get-ADComputer -SearchBase $oubase -Properties Name, Description -Filter * |
Where-Object {$_.description -clike "*RM $Room"}
}
$results |
Select-Object Name, Description |
Export-CSV '\\Desktop\Room_Hosts.csv' -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Append
What do I need to do to fix the Excel sheet output?
Your post says you want an Excel sheet, but your code is outputting to a CSV. You cannot add a second sheet to a CSV. You can export different CSV files per computer object.
$results = for($room=102; $room -le 110; $room++) {
Get-ADComputer -SearchBase $oubase -Properties Name, Description -Filter * |
Where-Object {$_.description -clike "*RM $Room"}
}
$results |
Select-Object Name, Description | Foreach-Object {
$_ | Export-CSV -Path ("\\Desktop\{0}.csv" -f $_.Name) -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Append
If the problem is getting the domain name, you can add some code to your Select-Object command.
$results = for($room=102; $room -le 110; $room++) {
Get-ADComputer -SearchBase $oubase -Properties Name,Description,DNSHostName -Filter * |
Where-Object {$_.description -clike "*RM $Room"}
}
$results |
Select-Object Name,Description,#{n='Domain';e={$_.DNSHostName -Replace $("{0}." -f $_.Name}} |
Export-CSV '\\Desktop\Room_Hosts.csv' -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Append
Explanation For Retrieving Computer Object's Domain:
The DNSHostName property contains the FQDN of the computer object. So you only need to remove the host name part of that string. Here, we simply replace the hostname and the following . character with nothing. Hostname is retrieved from the Name property of the computer object. The -f operator is used to simply append the . character to the name. The Select-Object uses a hash table to calculate the domain value and store it in a property called Domain.
Alternatively, you can apply the same concepts from above for getting the domain name but use the CanonicalName of the computer object with the -Split operator.
$results = for($room=102; $room -le 110; $room++) {
Get-ADComputer -SearchBase $oubase -Properties Name,CanonicalName,Description -Filter * |
Where-Object {$_.description -clike "*RM $Room"}
}
$results |
Select-Object Name,Description,#{n='Domain';e={($_.CanonicalName -Split "/")[0]}} |
Export-CSV '\\Desktop\Room_Hosts.csv' -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Append
I try since a while to create a csv file which contain:
"Group Name","SamAccountName"
Where GroupName is the name of the Group abd SamAccountName is the name of the user which is part of the Group.
I try this:
Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties DisplayName,memberof | % {
$Name = $_.DisplayName
$_.memberof | Get-ADGroup | Select #{N="User";E={$Name}},Name
} | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -delimiter "," "All_Users_With_All_Their_Groups.csv"
However it doesn't work like I want.
I try to google many example but it's not pretty simple I think as I don't find some relevant example.
Do you have any idea?
This should do your work:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory ;
Get-ADGroup -Filter {name -like "*Your Group Name*"} -Properties Description,info | Select Name,samaccountname | Export-Csv D:\output.csv -NoTypeInformation
Get-ADGroupMember YourGroupName # to list members ;
I've created two ways, dunno which one You wanted
get-aduser -Filter * -Properties memberof |
%{[pscustomobject]`
#{'Groups Names'=$(($_.memberof | Get-ADGroup).name -join "," );
User=$($_.samaccountname)}}|
Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Delimiter ',' "output.csv"
Get-ADGroup -Filter * -Properties members |
%{[pscustomobject]#{'Group'=$($_.name);
'Members'=$(($_.members | Get-ADUser).samaccountname -join ",")}} |
Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8 -Delimiter ',' "output.csv"
I'm writing a simple PowerShell script that fetches certain fields from Active Directory using the "Get-ADUser" cmdlet and outputs them to a CSV file, which works just fine:
Get-ADUser -filter * -properties Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,SamAccountName -server myADserver.domain.com:3268 | select Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,SamAccountName | Export-Csv -notype C:\Security-ActiveDirectory.csv
I'm looking to convert the "SamAccouontName" field to all uppercase when it is output to the CSV file. I tried applying the ToUpper() and Upper(string) methods, but they give me syntax errors:
Get-ADUser -filter * -properties Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,SamAccountName -server myADserver.domain.com:3268 | select Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,ToUpper().SamAccountName | Export-Csv -notype C:\Security-ActiveDirectory.csv
Get-ADUser -filter * -properties Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,SamAccountName -server myADserver.domain.com:3268 | select Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,Upper(SamAccountName) | Export-Csv -notype C:\Security-ActiveDirectory.csv
Can anyone help me on how I can make that field uppercase and still export to the CSV file?
Thanks!
Brian
You can do it like this:
Get-ADUser -filter * -properties Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,SamAccountName -server myADserver.domain.com:3268 |
select Division,Department,EmployeeID,GivenName,Sn,C,Title,Mail,ExtensionAttribute3,ExtensionAttribute4,#{Label = 'SamAccountName' ; Expression = {$_.SamAccountName.ToUpper()}} |
Export-Csv -notype C:\Security-ActiveDirectory.csv
I'm using the following code to get a list of direct reports in Powershell:
import-module activedirectory
$identity = read-host "Enter username:"
Get-ADUser $identity -Properties directReports | select-object {$_.directReports} | export-csv "DirectReports-$identity.csv"
This outputs all of the direct reports to one row, such as "CN=User1,CN=User2,CN=User3".....
How can I modify this so it outputs each user to its own row?
I'm sure this isn't the cleanest solution:
Get-ADUser $identity -Properties directReports | select-object -expandproperty directReports|foreach-object{$_.split(",")[0].replace("CN=","")}| export-csv "DirectReports-$identity.csv"
You'll get each person's name (only) on its own line in the CSV file.
Get-ADUser $identity -Properties directReports |
Select-Object Name,#{n='DirectReports';e={$_.directReports.Split(',CN=',[System.StringSplitOptions]::RemoveEmptyEntries) -join ';'}} |
Export-Csv "DirectReports-$identity.csv"
