Bulk update Azure AD with user attributes from CSV
I am looking for a way to update user attributes (OfficePhone and Department) for about 500 users from a CSV to AzureAD using a powershell. Does anyone know of a script that I could use? I am new her...

Hello Jacob,
Your CSV has to look something like this:
UserPrincipalName;Department;TelephoneNumber
manfreddelaat@domain.nl;IT;0135113333
manfred@domain.nl;IT;0622222222Your Powershell code:
# Connect to AzureAD Connect-AzureAD # Get CSV content $CSVrecords = Import-Csv C:\Temp\Test.csv -Delimiter ";" # Create arrays for skipped and failed users $SkippedUsers = @() $FailedUsers = @() # Loop trough CSV records foreach ($CSVrecord in $CSVrecords) { $upn = $CSVrecord.UserPrincipalName $user = Get-AzureADUser -Filter "userPrincipalName eq '$upn'" if ($user) { try{ $user | Set-AzureADUser -Department $CSVrecord.Department -TelephoneNumber $CSVrecord.TelephoneNumber } catch { $FailedUsers += $upn Write-Warning "$upn user found, but FAILED to update." } } else { Write-Warning "$upn not found, skipped" $SkippedUsers += $upn } } # Array skipped users # $SkippedUsers # Array failed users # $FailedUsers
Good luck!
Kind Regards, Manfred de Laat

jpcaid If you can't use spaces in the .csv, how do you handle things like Job titles or department names that have spaces in them?
