Use workflow script to modify attribute of removed member

I have a need to modify an attribute whenever a user is removed from a group. Stored in every users extensionattribute5 are values like this   1024adm;1025adm;1969adm;1429adm;

 

We have matching groups for each of those values.   What I would like is that when a user is removed from group 1969adm it removes that text from the users extensionattribute5.    I was hoping a workflow would do the trick BUT i am having a hard time referencing the user that was removed from the group.

When i use an script to get a variable for the object it references the group and not the user.

function onPreModify($Request)
{
$attrib = $Dirobj.get("extensionattribute5")    #this reads groups extensionatttribute5.
return $attrib
}

Any help on how to reference the user(Activity target) in a powershell script would be great.  

Thanks

  • If you are triggering on a group member add/remove then your workflow activity target IS the group and attributes you try to obtain using $Dirobj will be those of the group.

    You could instead trigger on a change to a user's "memberof" - this would give you the name of the group they were removed from. It would also mean that the attribute set you accessed using $Dirobj would now be that of the affected user.
