Hi all,

I'm currently trying to create a Power Automate Desktop flow that will create a user in AD.

My flow is currently just some variable declaration steps, and a Connect to Server step. This works, and I'm able to get user information from AD successfully.

However, when I add and run a "Create user" step I get the error: Object not found in directory.

I have tried each of the following format in the location field:

CN=users,DC=domain,DC=com,DC=au
and

OU=users,DC=domain,DC=com,DC=au

and

CN=users

and

OU=users

All of these produce an error. As I can get existing user info I assume the server connection and previous steps are working, but let me know if the error could be originating earlier.

Thanks,
