Get-aduser wildcards for finding extension attribute

Hello,
The end users in our organization have 100+ property names that include; distinguished name, all extension and custom attributes, a boatload of custom attributes, so on and so forth. If I perform a "get-aduser -properties | more" there are
just too many to scan through to find the one I need that begins with the word "script".  I tried the like operator in the manner below:
get-aduser user12345 | where-object {$_.name -like "*script*"} 
and 
get-aduser user12345 -propertites * | where-object {$_.name -like "*script*"} 
I don't' get any errors but I don't have any results either. I made sure an attribute with that naming convention existed and there are several entries that start with the word "script". Still no results returned.  Would like some input. 
thank you,
admin
Ok I already have 25 views on this and still no-one has any suggestions? I think I may just be overlooking some minor detail. Surely someone has a suggestion right? 

Hello,
You should ask in the
Windows PowerShell forum.
However, generally, you'd pipe the cmdlet to the Select-Object cmdlet
get-aduser user12345 -propertites * |Select-Object *script*

  • Using get-aduser -filter to find blank spaces only

    Hello all,
    What I'm trying to do is pretty simple. I want to use the -filter parameter of the get-aduser cmdlet to find a defined attribute that only contains a space. For example, I want to find any users that have extensionattribute1 equal to " ". I've
    tried the following code but I get the error "the search filter cannot be recognized":
    get-aduser -filter {extensionattribute1 -eq " "}
    What I don't want to use is -like "* *", as that will give me values that contain a space anywhere. I only want to return users that have extensionattribute1 equal to one space.
    Any ideas?

    Yes, in LDAP syntax you can escape any character with the backslash escape character followed by the two character hex ASCII representation of what you want. You can get foreign characters this way. More on escaping characters here:

  • Why is VO getter not called for custom VO attributes?

    Hi,
    The requirement is to add couple of fields on a OAF page. Here is what I did:
    - Created custom VO by extending the standard VO
    - Added fields to the page via personalization.
    The issue is that the values for the custom fields on the page were not showing up. On investigation, I found the VORowImpl getter getAttrInvokeAccessor was not being called for my custom attribute. I tried to check the difference between the attributes for which the getter was called and for which it was not called. I couldn't find any and I'm totally left clueless as to what determines the getter to be called.
    Really appreciate your help to move ahead.
    Thanks,
    Anil
    Edited by: AnilMenta on Mar 5, 2013 10:40 AM

    Hi Anil,
    First of all, Could you please make sure that Extended VO is being picked up during the execution of the page . Ensure that extended VO is substituted
    If the VO is substituted then try Steps below
    1. Enable the diagnostics .. show log on page statements
    2. Search for your custom VO name .
    If you can find your extended VO here, then substitution is right and page is picking up the extended VO.
    Thanks

  • Get-AdUser -Filter for homeDirectory

    I guess there's something I don't know about -filter syntax for this command...
    get-aduser -filter {homeDirectory -like "*\faculty\homes\*"} -property homeDirectory
    returns results, but...
    get-aduser -filter {homeDirectory -like "\\faculty\homes\*"} -property homeDirectory
    ...will not. All results returned by the first have homes starting with \\faculty\homes\...
    What gives?

    Hi,
    you need to use the LDAP escape character for \, which is \5c
    So, you could write it like this:
    $DirectoryInfo = Get-Item \\server\share\User1HomeDirectory
    $strFilter = $DirectoryInfo.FullName.Replace("\","\5c")
    $AdUser = Get-AdUser -Filter {homeDirectory -like $strFilter}
    If ($AdUser.HomeDirectory -like $DirectoryInfo.FullName) { #not abandoned home directory }

  • How to get meacure value for a sibling attribute in MDX

    Hi,
    I have a table with the following data
    Activity Id
    Last   Activity Id
    1
    NULL
    2
    NULL
    3
    NULL
    4

    3
    6
    2
    7
    3
    8
    1
    9
    4
    I have created a dimension "Activity" with 2 attributes : ActivityId, LastActivityId
    I have a Fact table like this :
    Activity Id
    Count   of Activities
    1
    10
    2
    12
    3
    34
    4
    45
    5
    32
    6
    23
    7
    56
    8
    34
    9
    56
    Now getting the count by activity is straight forward, But what I need to get is the count of last activity per activity. So if I select Activity 9 the measure value should not show me 56 but should show me 45 which is count for Activity 4 as Activity 4
    is the last activity for Activity 9.
    So essentially if I take all activities this is what the result of MDX should be :
    Activity
    Count of Activities (Last)
    1
    NULL
    2
    NULL
    3
    NULL
    4
    NULL
    5
    34
    6
    12
    7
    34
    8
    10
    9
    45
    Any suggestions on how to achieve this will be helpful.

    Hi Soma,
    that will not work. The measure is related to Activity id. The measure value per row is not value for LastActivityid.
    I want to show the measure value for last activity id and not this activity id. So there is an indirect relationshipid. Ideally the path would be :
    Activity id --> Figure out the last activity id for this activity id --> Get the measure value for last activity id..

  • How do i get to the actual map for Find my IPod

    I am hearing lots about how amazing the Find My Ipod app is, but it's useless if I  can't get to the map.
    So i'm hoping someone can tell me how to view the actual map, not send me to different links that show you how to install or get the app for finding your IPod.

    Firstly, FindMyiPod is not amazing.  It only works in limited circumstances.  In any case, to use it, first you have to turn it on in your iPod.  To do this go to Settings > iCloud and switching On FindMyiPod.  Then on your computer go to https://icloud.com, enter your userid and password and your iPod should be located on a map.

  • How do I use Get-ADUser to get just the Managers attribute? And then get rid of duplicates in my array/hash table?

    Hello,
          I am trying to just get the Managers of my users in Active Directory. I have gotten it down to the user and their manager, but I don't need the user. Here is my code so far:
    Get-ADUser-filter*-searchbase"OU=REDACTED,
    OU=Enterprise Users, DC=REDACTED, DC=REDACTED"-PropertiesManager|SelectName,@{N='Manager';E={(Get-ADUser$_.Manager).Name}}
    |export-csvc:\managers.csv-append 
    Also, I need to get rid of the duplicate values in my hash table. I tried playing around with -sort unique, but couldn't find a place it would work. Any help would be awesome.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    I would caution that, although it is not likely, managers can also be contact, group, or computer objects. If this is possible in your situation, use Get-ADObject in place of Get-ADUser inside the curly braces.
    Also, if you only want users that have a manager assigned, you can use -LDAPFilter "(manager=*)" in the first Get-ADUser.
    Finally, if you want all users that have been assigned the manager for at least one user, you can use:
    Get-ADUser
    -LDAPFilter "(directReports=*)" |
    Select @{N='Manager';E={ (Get-ADUser
    $_.sAMAccountName).Name }}
    -Unique | Sort Manager |
    Export-Csv .\managerList.csv -NoTypeInformation
    This works because when you assign the manager attribute of a user, this assigns the user to the directReports attribute of the manager. The directReports atttribute is multi-valued (an array in essence).
    Again, if managers can be groups or some other class of object (not likely), then use Get-ADObect throughout and identify by distinguishedName instead of sAMAccountName (since contacts don't have sAMAccountName).

    Will this help?

    If things are really missing, you may try the list (in this case 5) is irrelevant).
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Using get-aduser to search for enabled users in entire domain filter ..

    Hi,
    my first post here.
    I have the following problem. I am trying to figure out to create a powershell command (with get-aduser) that searches for only enabled
    users (in the entire domain),  whose user account login names starts with "b" or "B" (because their user account login names are composed of Bnnnnn, n=numbers). I suppose that a string of "B*" in the command should be sufficient. The query result
    must show the user account login name (Bnnnnn),  first name
    and last name  and the enabled  (yes) status  of those enabled users. I would like to write the entire query result to a file (csv format), saving it to c: for example
    Please help. Thanks in advance

    I use -LDAPFilter mostly because I am used to the LDAP syntax. It can be used in PowerShell, VBScript, dsquery, VB, and many command line utilities (like Joe Richards' free adfind utility). Active Directory is an LDAP compliant database.
    The PowerShell -Filter syntax can do the same things, but the properties it exposes are really aliases. I'm used to the AD attribute names, like sAMAccountName and userAccountControl. PowerShell uses things like "enabled" and "surname", which are aliases
    you need to know or look up. For example, the Get-ADUser default and extended properties, with the actual AD attributes they are based on, are documented here:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/12037.active-directory-get-aduser-default-and-extended-properties.aspx
    Finally, note that the "Name" property refers to the Relative Distinguished Name (RDN) of the object, which for user objects is the value of the cn attribute (the Common Name of the user). This may not uniquely identify the user, as it only needs to be unique
    in the parent OU/container. The user login name (pre-Windows 2000 logon name) is the value of the sAMAccountName attribute, which must be unique in the domain. In the Wiki article I linked, we see that the PowerShell alias for this attribute is "SamAccountName"
    (in this case the name of the property matches the name of the AD attribute). All of this can be confusing.

  • How to find the Attribute Tab for 0MOVETYPE?

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create the Attributes for 0MOVETYPE as per T156HT table. I am not able to find the Attribute tab. Please can you suggest me how to get T156HT data using Generic Datasource structure in BW or Is there any way to get R/3 structure in BW?
    Regards,
    Kiran

    T156HT is text table.
    You need to load only text ? It doesnt have any attibute.
    Go to RSD1
    Give your infoobject name.Check under master data/text tab if you have ticked "Text".
    You can create generic text datasource using table RSO2.
    Hope this helps.

  • Syntax for Get-ADUser to get only these items "DistinguishedName" "SamAccountName" "Title"

    Is there a way to pull these three parts in PowerShell???

     you always get the default set of properties, whether you ask for them or not. [...] always get all the default properties.
    Richard Mueller - MVP Directory Services
    It is true that the default set of properties is retrieved, but with a few more lines the OP can get what he is looking for. I had the same problem and overcame it by defining the output I wanted to display.  The following code did what I think he is
    asking for my test user; though my test user had no title.  
    $reportObject = @()
    $userList = Get-ADUser USERNAME -Properties DistinguishedName,SamAccountName,Title
    $userList | %{
    $output = "" | Select DistinguishedName,SamAccountName,Title
    $output.sAMAccountName = $_.sAMAccountName
    $output.DistinguishedName = $_.DistinguishedName
    $output.Title = $_.Title
    $reportObject += $output
    $output | fl *
    $reportObject | Convertto-CSV -NoTypeInformation | Out-File C:\Output.txt
    you can pull any -property that is a "Attr LDAP Name" (List: http://www.kouti.com/tables/userattributes.htm)
    you may also find the -filter flag useful if you have to get more than one user.

    The list of extensions for InDesign now have a yellow triangle warning symbol in front of a good many of the extensions and when moused over i get one of two messages:
    "Extensions may not function properly because it does not meet the dependency condition."
    OR
    Extension Status is not consistent with extension set configuration."
    The reason I opened the Extension Manager in the first place was to check to see if I had installed a third party extension.  And I was presented with these warning symbols.  I haven't added anything, I haven't done anything that would cause this.
    Does anyone know how to fix this???
    I am running OSX 10.9.5; Indesign CS6 version 8.0.2 And Adobe Extension Manager version  6.0.8.28.
    Thanks in advance!
    Nina

    Many InDesign pre-installed extensions (Those extensions you have immediately after InDesign installation) define dependency rules in their mxi files. Dependency means that one extension works well only if one or more other extensions are installed and enabled. If this condition is not met, the yellow triangle warning will be shown.
    You can select an extension with warning, click "Advanced" tag page in the lower right panel. You will see "This extension has dependency on: <extension name> ...". Check whether every extensions listed here are available and enabled. If not, enable them. Repeat these steps for all the extensions which have warning.

  • How can I get the direction handles to show up for the Position attribute?

    How can I get the direction handles to show up for the Position attribute?
    I have CS3 and I did the formentioned test and was able to make the handles work for the scale attribute but they don't seem to show when editing the position values.
    *I am in the graph editor looking at the "value graph"
    *I select the keys and convert the keys to auto bezier (I also tried the ease in and out buttons)
    *It changed the graph the way you might think (no longer linear) however the handles are not showing to edit further.
    *I also tried using the "convert vertex tool" (part of the pen tool) and still no luck getting those handles.
    *the handles only show up in the speed graph but that does me no good.
    Please help!
    THANKS 

    I don't have CS3 installed on any of my machines any more but your value graphs for position should look something like this:
    There are no handles for position in the Graph editor. You adjust the position curve by editing the motion path in the composition window. Press the G key to bring up the pen tool, then use the modifier keys Crtl/Cmnd and Alt/Option to temporarily switch between select and convert vertex to adjust the paths. Changes will be reflected in the value graphs. You will get editable handles with scale and rotation because these are not spatial properties. Spatial properties, position, Anchor Point, all XY & Z coordinates are edited in the comp window or in the layer window after revealing the properties. IOW, you edit anchor point position paths by opening up the layer window and choosing Anchor Point from the display options.
    The Manual isn't wrong. Here's a link to the live docs.
