Remove user from a group

Question

Hello

I was looking for some assistance with this command. I can not get this command below to work. I have tried two ways, and neither removed the account from the specified group. I've tried the group Distinguished name as well for Identity.

Remove-AdmGroupMember -Identity "%sAMAccountName%" -Members "%adm-InitiatorDN%" -confirm:$false -AdaxesService localhost

#$DistGroupDN = "%sAMAccountName%"
#$UserDN = "%adm-InitiatorDN%"

Remove-AdmGroupMember -Identity "$DistGroupDN" -Members "$UserDN" -confirm:$false -AdaxesService domain.com

Hello,

Where are you executing the script? Is it in Windows PowerShell or in Adaxes? If it is in Adaxes, please, post here or send us (support@adaxes.com) a screenshot of the custom command, business rule or scheduled task executing the script.

I've got it in a Business Rule as an action under an Else if condition. The other two actions work without issues.

Answer 1

Hello,

Thank you for the provided details. The first approach should work fine, but it might be required to add the -Server parameter:

Remove-AdmGroupMember -Identity "%sAMAccountName%" -Members "%adm-InitiatorDN%" -confirm:$false -AdaxesService localhost -Server "dc.domain.com"

Also, you can use the below approach that will definitely work.

$Context.TargetObject.Remove("Adaxes://%adm-InitiatorDN%")

The top script with "-Server" specified did the trick.

I will keep your bottom script in the back of my pocket.

Thank you!!!
