How to create multiple Users using PowerShell

Hey Hi,

Could you help me with creating multiple Users in Azure AD using PowerShell.

I have tried multiple ways but always I'm getting at defining UserPrincipleName.

Thank you in advance

None of us has any insight into your processes. If you ask for help you have to provide information that's pertinent to the situation.

Post the code you're using. If you're using a CSV file to provide the information, post the first few lines of that, too. Post the error message too -- copy and paste it from the console, don't provide a screenshot.

Does your code include any error handling? Do you check to see if a column in the CSV has any empty values before you use it?

Hello Raviteja

To create multiple users in Azure AD using PowerShell, you can follow these steps:

Create a CSV file with the attributes Name, samAccountName and ParentOU.
Copy the PowerShell script and paste it in a Notepad file.
Change the NewUsers.csv file path with your own CSV file path.
Change the domain name TestDomain.local into your own domain name.
Run the PowerShell script.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Import-Module MSOnline

$UserList = Import-Csv "C:\NewUsers.csv"

ForEach ($User in $UserList) {
    $Password = "Password1234"
    $UserPrincipleName = $User.Name + "@TestDomain.local"
    $DisplayName = $User.Name
    $FirstName = $User.Name
    $LastName = "Test"
    $UsageLocation = "US"
    $LicenseAssignment = New-MsolLicenseOptions -AccountSkuId "yourtenant:ENTERPRISEPACK"
    New-MsolUser -UserPrincipalName $UserPrincipleName -DisplayName $DisplayName -FirstName $FirstName -LastName $LastName -UsageLocation $UsageLocation -LicenseAssignment $LicenseAssignment -Password $Password
}
