In troubleshooting Active Directory integration with Snow Commander, you may need to share account details with Flexera Support. PowerShell provides the
Get-ADUser cmdlet that retrieves account properties from Active Directory and writes them to a text file for easy sharing.Ensure the required tools are installed
- On a Windows Server (such as the Commander application server),
Get-ADUseris typically available by default. - On Windows 10 workstations, you may need to install RSAT tools:
- Go to Settings > Apps & features, then click Optional features.
- Search for “RSAT” and install RSAT: Active Directory Domain Services and Lightweight Directory Services Tools.
Retrieve account properties using PowerShell
- Launch PowerShell as an Administrator.
- Run the following command:
Replace the placeholders as follows:Get-ADUser -Server address -Credential queryingaccount -Identity account -Properties * > c:\accountproperties.txt- address: Host name of the Active Directory server to query.
- queryingaccount: Username for connecting to the AD server (omit if currently logged into an account with query permissions; if included, you will be prompted for a password).
- account: The username of the account whose properties you want to retrieve.
- c:\accountproperties.txt: The path to the output file where properties will be stored. The file does not need to exist beforehand.
After execution
- The specified file will be created containing all properties for the account.
- Share the file with Flexera Support as part of your support case.
Outcome
You have successfully exported the requested Active Directory account properties for troubleshooting purposes.
