Active Directory User Creation using power Automate Desktop

Posted on by coachsbansal

I am trying to create Bulk Active Directory users using Power Automate Desktop. I tried using CSV and Excel to capture the data and tried utilizing Variables to create the User. But It's throwing an error "An invalid dn syntax has been specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80072032)"

However, the User creation test for a single user is successfully tested. Kindly guide me if you have any clue to resolve this issue.

Hi @coachsbansal

It should work if you are using as for each then it will work one by one.

Even you can use powershell script to create a user in AD.

Guys, I got the same error and found the solution. Here is how I did it.
There are whitespaces in the text (username, first name, last name, etc.) So I added a trim text option to the ColumnAsList. Once I added that option to all the text that was pulled from the CSV, I was good to go.

I provided screenshots on another thread.
