Hello,

There is no need to use scripts. It can be done using a business rule triggering After renaming a user and built-in action, Modify Exchange properties. The following tutorial will be helpful: https://www.adaxes.com/help/AutomateExchangeMailboxConfiguration.

We don't let addaxes update Azure like that. We set the settings in AD and let the oneway sync update Azure. Also, I need to remove any spaces in the the email address due to a user having a space in their name like Del Rio for example. Is there a way to set up a buisiness rule to remove spaces from an email address or proxy when I set it?

Hello,

We don't let addaxes update Azure like that.

Adaxes is aware of the way hybrid Exchange works. The action works accordignly.

I need to remove any spaces in the the email address due to a user having a space in their name like Del Rio for example.

In this case, it is easier to directly do the whole thing in a script like below. It will take the required template, remove spaces and add it as new address. In the script:

  • $newAddressTemplate - Specifies the template for the address to add. You can use value references in the template. They will resolve into the corresponding property values of the target object.
  • $setAsPrimary - Specifies whether to set the new address as primary.
$newAddressTemplate = "%firstname%%lastname%@example.com" # TODO: modify me
$setAsPrimary = $True

# Create an instance of the 'AdmExchangeMailboxParameters' class
$mailboxParams = New-Object "Softerra.Adaxes.Adsi.Exchange.AdmExchangeMailboxParameters"

# Automatically update e-mail addresses based on e-mail address policy
$mailboxParams.EmailAddressPolicyEnabled = $false

$emailAddresses = $mailboxParams.EmailAddresses
$emailAddresses.OverrideOldValues = $false

# Create a new e-mail address
$emailAddress = $emailAddresses.CreateAddress("ADM_EXCHANGE_ADDRTYPE_SMTP", $null)
$emailAddress.Address = $newAddressTemplate.Replace(" ","")
$emailAddress.IsPrimary = $setAsPrimary

# Add the new e-mail address to the existing list
$emailAddresses.Add("ADS_PROPERTY_APPEND", $emailAddress)
$mailboxParams.EmailAddresses = $emailAddresses

# Save changes
$user = $Context.BindToObjectByDNEx("%distinguishedName%", $true)
$user.SetMailParameters($mailboxParams, "ADM_SET_EXCHANGE_PARAMS_FLAGS_RESOLVEVALUEREFERENCES")

I don't understand how you would use this searcher function. Can you show me in this example? Import-Module ImportExcel #set up variables $currentTime = Get-Date ... $Context.BindToObjectByDN($NewU) $U.Put("adm-CustomAttributeBoolean6", $False) $U.SetInfo() }

Hello, We are currently rolling out a deployment for Windows Hello. For this, we have created a custom automation in Adaxes for users to have to reset their passwords on ... this group? Or, do you have another recommendation for getting this done? Thank you.

The rule runs but since the first name and last name are passed as parameters, I only get the sequential # as a userID without the initials.
