Export user information to SQL database

February 18, 2021 Views: 4999

The script exports properties of a user to an SQL database. It can be used, for example, to export properties of new users to an external HR database once they are created in AD. To export properties of new users, create a business rule that runs the script automatically after creating a new user.

Parameters:

  • $databaseHost - Specifies the DNS host name of the computer where the SQL database is homed.
  • $databaseName - Specifies the database name.
  • $tableName - Specifies the name of the table that holds user account information.
  • $userNameField - Specifies the name of the database fields that is used to store usernames.
  • $databaseUsername - Specifies the username of the user account that will be used to connect to the database. Specify $NULL to use the credentials of the Adaxes service account.
  • $databasePassword - Specifies the password that will be used to connect to the database. Specify $NULL to use the credentials of the Adaxes service account.
