Add / remove object from group upon adding / removing it from another group

March 19, 2025 Views: 5017

The script adds or removes objects from a specific group upon adding or removing them from another group. To execute the script, create a business rule triggering After adding or removing a member from a group. An object will be added to or removed from the group specified in the script when added or removed from one of the groups in the Activity Scope of the rule.

In the script, the $targetGroupDN variable specifies the distinguished name (DN) of the group to add or remove members from. For details on how to get an object DN, see https://adaxes.com/sdk/HowDoI.GetDnOfObject/.

Edit Remove
PowerShell
$targetGroupDN = "CN=Resources,OU=Groups,DC=example,DC=com" # TODO: modify me

$group = $Context.BindToObjectEx("Adaxes://$targetGroupDN", $True)
if (($Context.Action.IsOperationOfType($Context.TargetObject, "remove group members")) -and
    ($group.IsMember("Adaxes://%member%")))
{
    $group.Remove("Adaxes://%member%")
}
elseif (($Context.Action.IsOperationOfType($Context.TargetObject, "add group members")) -and (-not ($group.IsMember("Adaxes://%member%"))))
{
    $group.Add("Adaxes://%member%")
}

Had a problem with the script that when I removed one member which was not member of the target group, it was added to the group.
Change the line with elseif to avoid this:
elseif (($Context.Action.IsOperationOfType($Context.TargetObject, "add group members")) -and (-not ($group.IsMember("Adaxes://%member%"))))
