Hi Team.
I am trying to get the DN value from a user account to then pass it along as variable for something. When i grab the variable and write it out its including @DN= when i just need the CN value
Any ideas?
@{DN=CN=blah-blah-blah}
$DN = get-qaduser ABC | select dn
write-host $DN
You're getting an object returned, which is why you're getting @{DN=<something>}
You need to enclose your Get-QARUser line in brackets, and then provide the property you're wanting to return..
Clear-Host $Username = "YourUser" $DN = (Get-QADUser -Identity $Username -UseGlobalCatalog).dn Write-Host "$($DN)"
