Please guys, help me out here.
I have created a file with the following command:
Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties samAccountName,DistinguishedName,telephoneNumber | select-object samAccountName,DistinguishedName,telephonenumber,address,city | Export-Csv C:\Shares\TESTSHARE\new3.csv -notypeinformation -delimiter ";" -Encoding utf8;
This works like a charm, but for the love of god, I cannot manage to import it again, all I wanna do is change the phonenumbers in the excel sheet, and insert the altered file into the AD.
Basically this has robbed me three days worth of time already, and my client is becoming edgy..
EDIT:
I tried to run the script which was posted by Ansgar Wiechers but unfortunately I got a few error messages.
Use the complementary cmdlets in reverse order:
$csv = 'C:\Shares\TESTSHARE\modified3.csv'
Import-Csv $csv -Delimiter ';' -Encoding UTF8 | % {
Get-ADUser -Identity $_.samAccountName |
Set-ADUser -OfficePhone $_.telephonenumber
}
Edit: Your error messages suggest that you try to assign empty telephone numbers. Verify that by adding the following line before Get-ADuser:
Write-Output "{0} [{1}]" -f $_.samAccountName, $_.telephonenumber

I am currently trying to export a list of AD-Users per every AD-Group, which starts with "AD-AllowMailbox*"
Since there are more than 200+ AD-Groups like this (AD-AllowMailbox-Parking, AD-AllowMailbox-Office..) I prefer to do this with a single script.
The powershell code I am using is:
Get-ADGroup -Filter '(Name -like "AD-AllowMailbox-*")' |
ForEach-Object {Get-ADGroupMember -Recursive -Identity $_} |
Select-Object -ExpandProperty 'Name' |
Sort-Object -Unique
Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -Path C:\Users\Admin\mailbox.csv
The script runs. However, I get the following message in powershell:
cmdlet Export-Csv at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
InputObject:
What does this mean and why does it pop up? No matter what value I insert as input, I get an empty .csv.
Am I missing something in the script?
I am trying to get a file with the group-memberships for every user that is specified in a txt/csv file.
so this is what i had before:
Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $user -Server $DC | Select name | Where-Object name -like GUSR_* | Out-File "C:\temp\$user.txt"
this work fine for getting the groups from 1 singel user, but now i have to do this for 100+ users.
And instead of doing it one by one i am looking for a way to automate it.
so i got myself a .csv export of all the users i want this done for.
and started trying.
what i came up with so far:
$users = Get-Content "C:\temp\test.csv" |ForEach-Object {Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $users -Server $DC | Select name | Where-Object name -like GUSR_* | Out-File "\\ads.net\ADS\SDL\Temp\_ROLAND\RSD\test2\$users.txt"}
This cleary doesnt work.
I have tried a couple of other things with the foreach command but nothing did the trick.
I have the feeling i am not on the right path to get my result.
Maby somebody has done this before and can help me get on the right path.
i'm not new to powershell but i'm far from an expert, most of the time i use it for basic singel commands or edit some great scripts i find.
sadly for this i haven't found any yet.
with kind regards

Don't assign back to a variable
Import the CSV
No filter after select
Pretiffy your -like
Use $_ as pipeline variable
Use subexpression operator for string+variable concatenation
Import-Csv "C:\temp\test.csv" |ForEach-Object {Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership -Identity $_.users -Server $_.DC | Where-Object {$_.name -like 'GUSR_*'} | Select -Expand Name | Out-String | Out-File "\\ads.net\ADS\SDL\Temp\_ROLAND\RSD\test2\$($_.users).txt"}
I am trying to get certain information from our Office 365 but not getting all the information required.
Below is my script I use:
Get-MsolUser -All | select DisplayName, LastPasswordChangeTimeStamp, LastLogonTime, PrimaryEmailAddress | Export-CSV UserList.csv -NoTypeInformation
The information I am getting from the above script is only the display name last password change. For the LastLogonTime and PrimaryEmailAddress I get nothing.
Is there something I am doing wrong?
Please help.
Thanks
Last logon time can be retrieved from Get-MailboxStatistics but it shows last accessed Exchange mailbox alone. It doesn't track other Office 365 services. You can try below code for your requirement.
$Result=""
$Output=#()
Get-mailbox -All | foreach{
$UPN=$_.UserPrincipalName
$DisplayName=$_.DisplayName
$PrimaryEmailAddress=$_.ProxyAddresses.where{$_ -clike "SMTP:*"} -creplace "SMTP:"
$LastPwdChange=$_.LastPasswordChangeTimeStamp
$LastLogonTime=(Get-MailboxStatistics -Identity $upn).lastlogontime
$Result= #{'DisplayNme'=$DisplayName;'LastLogonTime'=$LastLogonTime;'PrimaryEmailAddress'=$PrimaryEmailAddress;'LastPwdChange'=$LastPwdChange}
$Output= New-Object PSObject -Property $Result
$Output | Select-Object DisplayName,LastLogonTime,PrimaryEmailAddress,LastPwdChange | Export-CSV UserList.csv -Notype -Append
}
I'm having the hardest time getting the following output from powershell. The console just stops at the blinking cursor like the command is running, but I wait 20 min or so, and I still have no output, both in the powershell console, as well as when I try to export as a csv. I'm using the following command:
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -DateTime "01/29/2017" | where {$_.ObjectClass -eq 'user'} | FT Name,ObjectClass -A | Export-Csv C:\temp
Could someone help? I've scoured the internet to no avail.
You are using format-table inappropriately. Don't use any Format-* cmdlets if you need to process the data after that point - formatting makes that impossible. Always save formatting for the very end, and only for user presentation.
Also, you're going to end up with a file in your C:\ root directory named temp that's not entirely usable as a CSV file, at least from Excel and other readers, because additional information is going to be inserted by Export-CSV. This will be eliminated by the -notypeinformation switch.
Additionally, you can speed this up by specifying the -UsersOnly switch for Search-ADAccount and skipping the where-object loop - the pipeline is really useful, but constructs like this can slow it down. Filter your data as far to the left as possible, and if you can do it inside a cmdlet that offers a filter, do it there.
Corrected script which should work as you expect:
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -DateTime "01/29/2017" -UsersOnly | select-object -Property Name,ObjectClass | Export-Csv C:\temp\expiring.csv -NoTypeInformation;
Forgive me if this isn't perfect code, but this script will get you accounts expiring within the next 7 days. You can change the $DaysAhead variable to alter the time frame.
$maxPwdAge=(Get-ADDefaultDomainPasswordPolicy).MaxPasswordAge.Days;
$daysAhead = 7;
$dateMin=(get-date).AddDays(-$maxPwdAge);
$dateMax=$DateMin.AddDays($daysAhead);
Get-ADUser -filter {Enabled -eq $True -and PasswordNeverExpires -eq $False -and PasswordLastSet -gt 0} –Properties * | where {($_.PasswordLastSet) -ge $dateMin} |where {($_.PasswordLastSet) -le $dateMax} | select CN,EmailAddress,passwordLastSet | Format-Table;
I've a text file with a list of distribution groups that I'm trying to get managedby attribute. I tried running different commands but seems to be a syntax issue ( fairly new to PowerShell) because I'm able to retrieve the attribute managedby for single distribution group. When I'm formatting and exporting the result to csv file all I get is a bunch of numbers. I'm on powershell exchange server 2008.
Starting with a flat text file named groups.txt:
Employees#company.com
Executives#company.com
Suggested Solution:
$grouplist = Get-Content groups.txt | foreach {Get-DistributionGroup -Identity $_ | Select-Object PrimarySMTPaddress, ManagedBy}
$grouplist | Export-Csv -Path results.csv -NoTypeInformation
Gives results like:
"PrimarySmtpAddress","ManagedBy"
"Employees#company.com","admin"
"Executives#company.com","admin"
Reproducing the "bunch of numbers" issue:
$grouplist = Get-Content groups.txt | foreach {Get-DistributionGroup -Identity $_ | Select-Object PrimarySMTPaddress, ManagedBy}
Export-Csv -InputObject $grouplist -Path results2.csv -NoTypeInformation
Resulted in:
"Count","Length","LongLength","Rank","SyncRoot","IsReadOnly","IsFixedSize","IsSynchronized"
"2","2","2","1","System.Object[]","False","True","False"
