Add Bulk Users to a Group

Something like this would do the job:

# This script is created and stored as a policy script under "Script Modules" in ARS and then

# referenced in the workflow script activity

function BulkAddMembers ($Request)

{

<#

Assumption input file contains the following: samaccountname,targetgroup

Example:

samaccountname,targetgroup

MyDom\SJones,MyDom\MyGroup1Name

MyDom\BSmith,MyDom\MyGroup1Name

MyDom\MHoward,MyDom\MyGroup2Name

　

#>

# 'Input file' is the actual name of the parameter of the workflow that prompts the user for the file

# This name could be anything but is handy because it serves as a prompt as well

$InputFile = $workflow.parameter("input file")

Import-Csv $InputFile | %{

Add-QADGroupMember -Identity $_.TargetGroup -Member $_.samaccountname

}

}

Johnny,

Sorry for bringing up an old thread but was curious about this statement:

2) Setup a parameter in the workflow that prompts the user for the input file name.  To support this, I will usually create a two line script that enumerates files in a particular folder to present to the user a list of input files to select from.

I would like to see if you can elaborate on this as I am having difficulties getting anything to be presented in the web interface using workflow parameters or workflow scripts , like a folder or file share that will list files.

I am assuming by 2 line script to enumerate you mentioned, would be something similar to this:

function getfiles {
$values = Get-ChildItem -path "\\devserver.mycompany.com\Temp" | Select Name
return $values
}

but how does AR give the end users web interface a dialog / modal box to select the file they want.?

I am ultimately trying not to have to teach large numbers of people how to use the quest commandlets

Any direction/guidance on how to get bulk add users to a group through the WI would be great.
