How can I create and modify users of the Multi-Factor Authentication Server programmatically, with PowerShell or otherwise?

Specifically, I would need to add groups (to grant specific privileges to groups of users) and add new users automatically.

I cannot find any obvious solution here. What am I missing?

Hello @Andrew Brehm ,

Thanks for reaching out.

PowerShell management is quite constrained in Multi-Factor Authentication Server (MFA on-premises server). Here are a few examples for your convenience.

Sample for querying users and initiating a callout.

Sample for adding users:
