Importing users from CSV

Question

We are needing to bulk create several users via CSV. Do users added via CSV get put through the User property pattern or do i need to add every attribute to the csv itself.

Answer 1

Hello,

Property patterns and business rules apply if the import is performed via Adaxes pipeline. For example, if the import is performed using a script with Adaxes cmdlets, the -AdaxesService parameter must be specified. For information on how to perform the import, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_ActiveDirectoryManagement_ImportUserAccountsFromCSVFile.htm. In case the import wizard cannot be used to import your file, the following script from our repository should be helpful: https://www.adaxes.com/script-repository/import-new-and-updated-users-from-csv-file-s246.htm.

So if the import is being performed via the Adaxes pipeline I should only need the values of my webform?

Hello,

Yes, that is correct. The CSV file will need to contain only the values that are not automatically set by property patterns and business rules.
