Welcome to the xActiveDirectory wiki

Here you will find all the information you need to make use of the xActiveDirectory DSC resources in the latest release (the code that is part of the master branch). This includes details of the resources that are available, currentcapabilities and known issues, and information to help plan a DSC based implementation of xActiveDirectory.

Please leave comments, feature requests, and bug reports in then issues section for this module.

This wiki is currently updated manually by a maintainer (using automatically generated documentation by the CI pipeline), so there can be some delay before this wiki is updated for the latest release.

To get started download xActiveDirectory from the PowerShell Gallery and then unzip it to one of your PowerShell modules folders (such as $env:ProgramFiles\WindowsPowerShell\Modules).

To install from the PowerShell gallery using PowerShellGet (in PowerShell 5.0) run the following command:
