Exchange Online: create users with PS
-
I am very much still getting use to the new office and its policies and how things are being done… One thing I had gotten away from at the clinic was building user accounts using ADUC. Here we start with mail.domain.com - Exchange Online.
Should I not be able to do the same thing I was with the clinic and use PS to create the user in EO and go from there? Seems logical anyway,…
Yet - it would only need to be a stop gap measure as we employ a HR site called Workday. They plan is to integrate Workday directly into AD and when HR builds the user, it builds the AD user, we would need to still apply the needed permissions, but all the other routine items would be already completed.
So, I don’t know how much time I want to invest in something - just curious and confirming what I feel.
TIA.

I connect to Exchange Powershell Online and run something like this:
New-Mailbox -Alias Jt -Name JayThompson -FirstName Jay -LastName Thompson -DisplayName "Jay Thompson" -MicrosoftOnlineServicesID JayT@XXXXXX.com -Password (ConvertTo-SecureString -String 'ChangeMe123!!' -AsPlainText -Force) -ResetPasswordOnNextLogon $true -
Thank you, about what I expected…. Just needed confirmation.
