Hello I'm searching for a way to list the permissions and extended permissions on my active directory root.

I've tried with the get-acl command and some others, but I’m not able to get it. Is it the correct way?

    Hello RubenVazquez-7903,

    Thank you for posting here.

    We can try the PowerShell script in attachment export-permissions.txt, and it works in my lab.

    1.Open PowerShell ISE (run as administrator) and copy the PS script in it.
    2.We should change the domain name and export path in your AD environment.

    3.And click run button.

    4.Open the export file and check the permissions.

    Hope the information above is help. If anything is unclear, please feel free to let us know.

    Best Regards,
    Daisy Zhou

    Hi,

    You can also use the following command :

    (get-acl (Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -Filter {name -eq “DomainName”}).distinguishedname).access | ft identityreference, accessControlType –AutoSize
    
    ##############################""
    
    dsacls “dc=domain,dc=com”
    

    You can refer to the following link to get more details:
