Active Directory - copy user

orian · ‎08-20-2017

Hi,

Is it possible with the existing actions and workflows to create a new user by copying an existing user in the active directory?

Thanks!

Yes, It is possible if the existing user has those permissions.

If it is useful, plz mark answer as correct or helpful.

How?

I want to copy an existing user and just change his name, logon name and password.

There are 2 ways:

1. Using UI from the "Active Directory Users and Computers" section.

2. Using a script, please see below link for more details of how to copy an existing user to a new user.

The question is about vmware orechestrator...

No, there are no workflows or actions that enable the 'copy user' functionality, so you'd have to roll your own. This is at least in vRO 7.3.
