Convert a Phone Number to a Line URI and Assign to User
This script converts a phone number in a format similar to the following to a Line URI and assigns the Line URI to the user:
1-(206)-555-1219
1-206-555-1219
1.206.555.1219
1(206)555-1219
$enabledUsers = Get-CsAdUser -Filter {Enabled -ne $Null}
foreach ($user in $enabledUsers)
{
$phoneNumber = $user.Phone
$phoneNumber = $phoneNumber -replace "[^0-9]"
$phonenumber = "TEL:+" + $phoneNumber
Set-CsUser -Identity $user.Identity -LineUri $phoneNumber
}
Convert an Incomplete Phone Number to a Line URI
The following script will convert a number a partial phone number to a line URI, modifying the area code based on prefix. In this script,
if the extension starts with the number
5
then the area code is assumed to be 206. If the extension starts with the number
6
then the area code is 425.
$enabledUsers = Get-CsAdUser -Filter {Enabled -ne $Null}
foreach ($user in $enabledUsers)
{
$phoneNumber = $user.Phone
$phoneNumber = $phoneNumber -replace "[^0-9]"
$extension = $phoneNumber -match "^5"
if ($extension)
{
$phoneNumber = "TEL:+120655" + $phoneNumber
}
else
{
$phoneNumber = "TEL:+142556" + $phoneNumber
}
Set-CsUser -Identity $user.Identity -LineUri $phoneNumber
}
Convert a Phone Number with an Extension to a Line URI
This script will convert a phone number with an extension, in the format:
1-206-555-1111
x1219
to a valid line URI with the same extension:
TEL:+12065551111;ext=1219
The script will assign the line URI to the user with that phone number.
$enabledUsers = Get-CsAdUser -Filter {Enabled -ne $Null}
foreach ($user in $enabledUsers)
{
$phoneNumber = $user.Phone
$phoneNumber = $phoneNumber -replace "[^0-9]"
$extension = $phoneNumber -match "^5"
if ($extension)
{
$phoneNumber = "TEL:+120655" + $phoneNumber
}
else
{
$phoneNumber = "TEL:+142556" + $phoneNumber
}
Set-CsUser -Identity $user.Identity -LineUri $phoneNumber
}
