Powershell find users expiring in 7 days
Solution 1
Update: You can get the accounts if you pass a string value, passing an integer initializes the timespan to 7 ticks!
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan "7"
other valid options:
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan (New-TimeSpan -Days 7)
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan ([TimeSpan]::FromDays(7))
Could be a bug, it doesn't work for me as well. Here's a workaround:
$NeverExpires = 9223372036854775807
$ExpringIn = (Get-Date).AddDays(7)
Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties accountExpires |
Where-Object {$_.accountExpires -ne $NeverExpires -and [datetime]::FromFileTime([int64]::Parse($_.accountExpires)) -lt $ExpringIn }
Solution 2
The attribute in use is accountExpires
and is express in pacquet of 100 nano second since 1600
PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-ADuser user1 -Properties accountExpires
accountExpires : 129821976000000000
DistinguishedName : CN=user1 users,OU=OUTest,DC=dom,DC=fr
Enabled : True
GivenName : user1
Name : user1 users
ObjectClass : user
ObjectGUID : b1bef798-8e36-45ff-ad11-e79f89769efc
SamAccountName : user1
SID : S-1-5-21-3115856885-816991240-3296679909-1146
Surname : Users
UserPrincipalName : [email protected]
you can convert it to [dateTime] like this :
PS> [datetime](Get-ADuser user1 -Properties accountExpires).accountExpires
mardi 22 mai 0412 22:00:00
Solution 3
Try the following PowerShell command
Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan 6.00:00:00 | FT Name,ObjectClass -A

I am trying to run a powershell script that queries for accounts that expire within 7 days, I currently have
$a = (get-date).AddDays(7) ; Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan "7" | Select-Object SamAccountName,AccountExpirationDate | Sort-Object AccountExpirationDate | Export-Csv 7_days.csv
However when I make the following change, it seems to have some trouble and I end up getting an empty CSV file. Ultimately I want account expiring in 7 days, not more, not less.
$a = (get-date).AddDays(7) ; Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan "7" | Select-Object SamAccountName,AccountExpirationDate | Sort-Object AccountExpirationDate | Where-Object {$_.AccountExpirationDate -like $a } | Export-Csv 7_days.csv
Can someone let me know what I am doing wrong? I have tried moving the "Where-Object {$_.AccountExpirationDate -like $a } " piece around, or "-match" instead of "-like" , however these havn't landed me much success. Where am I going wrong with this?
