So without getting late, let’s get started.

Background

• In our organization, one of our project have Power Automate approval process.
• In that process manager have to approve the user’s request.
• But the Power Automate flow failed to get the resource manager.
• We checked in the Azure Active Directory, we found the user don’t have manager.
• We downloaded the users list from Azure AD to check all the user’s manager, but we didn’t get the manager of the users in the file.
• Then we wrote a PowerShell script to get all the managers of the Azure AD users.
• Now we identify the user’s don’t have manager and fixed it.

Details

• Open PowerShell ISE.
• Now ran the PowerShell with the following cmdlet to get Site Collection Data.

Note: The line starting with “#” are just description heading or comment.

Prerequisites

• Install PowerShell ISE / PowerShell / Visual Studio Code if its not installed.

Detailed Steps – PowerShell script

• Connect to the Azure Active Directory

# Connect Azure Directory
Connect-AzureAD

• Use a variable for the outcome.

# Variable for outcome
$outcome = @()

• Get all the Azure AD Users

# Get the Azure AD Users
$users = Get-AzureADUser -All $true

• Apply a loop for each user in the users to get the manager.

# Apply loop to each user
foreach ($user in $users)

• Get the manager of the Azure AD user

# Get the manager of the User
$manager = Get-AzureADUserManager -ObjectId $user.ObjectId

• Use a variable for the properties of Azure AD user and manager.

# Variable for object
$info = New-Object -TypeName psobject

• Get the properties of Azure AD User.

# Get the user properties
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name UserDisplayName -Value $user.DisplayName
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name UserJobTitle -Value $user.JobTitle
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name UserUPN -Value $user.UserPrincipalName

• Get the properties of Azure AD Manager.

# Get the manager properties
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ManagerDisplayName -Value $manager.DisplayName
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ManagerJobTitle -Value $manager.JobTitle
$info | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name ManagerUPN -Value $manager.UserPrincipalName

• Collect all the Azure AD user and manager properties

# Assemble the properties in variable
$outcome += $info

• Export the outcome data into CSV file.

# Export the details in CSV file
$outcome | Export-Csv -Path adusers.csv -NoTypeInformation

• Open the exported CSV file.

# Open the CSV file
Invoke-Item adusers.csv
