Foreach in Get-ADUser

Question

I've tried lots of different combinations at this point and I'm coming up dry. I have a CSV file that contains usernames ( Users ) of people in the format of 117321, which refers to their login name. I'm trying to get the homedirectory path of all these users and export them to a CSV. Here's what I have so far, but it doesn't seem to work. I've even tried filter.

$InputFile = 'C:\Users.csv'
$Users = Import-CSV $InputFile
$OutputFile = 'C:\Directory Results.csv'

$HomeDirOutput = ForEach ($User in $Users) {
Get-ADUser -LDAPFilter "(sAMAccountName=$user)" -Properties homedirectory
}

$HomeDirOutput | Export-Csv $OutputFile -NoTypeInformation

All I'm getting is a blank spreadsheet.

Answer 1

sAMAccountName is a valid value to pass to the -Identity parameter of Get-ADUser. Assuming that the CSV contains a column "AccountName", you should be able to do

Import-CSV -Path $InputFile | ForEach-Object { Get-ADUser -Identity $_.AccountName -Property sAMAccountName,HomeDirectory } | SelectObject -Property sAMAccountName,HomeDirectory | Export-CSV -NoTypeInformation -Path $OutputFile -Append

(after making sure that the output file doesn't already exist).
