Custom Actions Variables - Active Directory

[rarmstrong]

I'm looking to get the manager name from a user and pass it to a script for maintenance.

{manager} is not an option that works but it is the name of the ad field.


I'm able to pass {username} to my script -(powershell)- but I need to get the ad user's manager as well.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Thank you SO much! It works perfectly!

You can use this in your powershell script to find the manager :

$manager = (get-aduser (get-aduser $user -Properties manager).manager).samaccountName

Then you can use $manager where you want to.
