Get-ADUser attributes from CSV list of users in PowerShell

In this blog post, I will discuss with you how to get ad users properties from a csv file. We will be using PowerShell Get-AdUser cmdlet and filter parameter to get active directory user information, get aduser attributes or PowerShell get user properties and export ad users to csv file.

Let’s consider you have a list of aduser employee IDs in csv file. Based on employee ID, you want to get active directory user attributes or get-aduser all properties and export ad users to csv.

$UserAttributesList = @()

#  Iterate over list to get ad user attributes filter by employee id and store result
Import-CSV D:\PowerShell\AdUsers.csv | ForEach-Object { 
$UserAttributesList  += Get-ADUser  -Filter "employeeid -eq $($_.employeeid)" -Properties SamAccountName, Name, Mail| select samaccountname, name, mail
}

In the above PowerShell script, the Import-CSV command imports ad users from csv file and passes through to ForEach-Object for iteration to get ad user filter by employee ID and get ad user attributes like SamAccountName, Name, and Mail attributes.

It stores aduser attributes in the $UserAttributesList variable.

In the final step, using the Export-Csv cmdlet in PowerShell, it exports the ad user to csv file AdUserAttributes.csv. The Csv file contains ad user all properties.

$UserAttributesList   | Export-csv D:\Powershell\AdUserAttributes.csv -Append -NoTypeInformation
