Viewing the Attributes of an Object

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2

This topic explains how to use the Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell to view the attributes of an object in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).

Example

The following example demonstrates how to view the attributes Name and CanonicalName of the sites in the Fabrikam.com domain:

Get-ADObject -Filter 'ObjectClass -eq "site"' -SearchBase 'CN=Configuration,DC=Fabrikam,DC=Com' -Properties CanonicalName | FT Name,CanonicalName -A

Additional information

In addition to the standard Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) attributes, you can retrieve the following extended properties of the Get-ADObject cmdlet by using the -Properties parameter:

  • ObjectClass

  • Created

  • Modified

  • Deleted

  • ProtectedFromAccidentalDeletion

For a full explanation of the parameters that you can pass to Get-ADObjects, at the Active Directory module command prompt, type Get-Help Get-ADObject –detailed, and then press ENTER.
