Why isn’t my PowerShell script populating the Email field for new users?

Hey everyone, I'm diving into PowerShell scripting for user management and I'm running into a bit of a snag. I've got a section of my script that defines user properties and pulls data from a CSV file. However, when I create new users in Active Directory, the Email field isn't being filled out as I expected. I thought the EmailAddress property should take care of this, but I'm not seeing any errors during execution. Here's a snippet of my script: I check if the user exists, and if not, I prepare the parameters in a hashtable including EmailAddress from the CSV. Any insights on what might be going wrong?

Just to clarify, you mentioned using the Azure module, but for Active Directory tasks, you're looking for the standard ActiveDirectory module. If that’s the case, then you're on the right track. Make sure you're using the correct cmdlets like Get-ADUser. There shouldn't be any issue unless you're trying to do something specific that the module doesn't support.

Are you using MSGraph for anything in your script? While it's recommended for various tasks now, if you're specifically working with Active Directory, stick with the ActiveDirectory module. Just ensure that the command syntax is correct and that you're correctly populating that Email property from the CSV.

It sounds like you might need to check the section of your script where you pull in the CSV file and define the $user variable. If everything else seems fine, the likely culprit is that your CSV might not have a column directly named *Email.* Double-check for typos or mismatched names there!
