Hello,

Yes, it is possible. You can use the wizard as shown in the tutorial and select the Update existing option. Alternatively, you can use Script 2: Only update existing users from the article we referenced.

Hello,

If it is a one-time process, you can just use the import wizard. In this case, you need a CSV file with just two columns. The column headers should be set to the property names (e.g. sAMAccountName and l). The first column will be for identifying users and the second for storing new property values.

If you need the process scheduled, you will need to use the script. There is no need to update the coding part of the script. You need a CSV file with only two columns. One will store user identities and the other values of the property to update. Once done, you just need to adjust the script variables.
