将多个用户添加到AD中的组

Question

I have a CSV file which has a list of users and groups they belong to. I am trying to script the same to automate it using PowerShell but seem to be facing an error. When I try to debug it I see that for some reason the user name value is being blank.

Any assistance will be helpful.

$Users = import-csv -Path "C:\Scripts\listofusers.csv" 

foreach-Object ($User in $Users)
{
    $SAM = $User.'SAM'
    $group = $User.'Group'

    Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $group -Members "$SAM"
}

Test Data

Group                  SAM

Answer 1

Change:

foreach-Object ($User in $Users) 

to:

foreach ($User in $Users)  

The foreach statement iterates over a collection of objects whereas the foreach-object is used in a pipeline

Hence try the following:

$Users = import-csv -Path "C:\Scripts\listofusers.csv" 
foreach ($User in $Users) { 
$SAM = $User.'SAM' 
$group = $User.'Group' 
Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $group -Members "$SAM" 
}

If data is as you wrote, then you need to define delimiter while importing data from CSV. By default, delimiter is comma, so its not fitting your data. Just use

 $Users = import-csv -Path 'C:\Scripts\listofusers.csv' -Delimiter ' '

If that is not a space, but tab, then use `t (that's backtick in front of t).
