How To Export Active Directory Information to a CSV File

Shameless Plug : I am available for hire to assist with Active Directory issues. Please contact me if I can be of any assistance.

While it sounds like a daunting task, it’s actually quite simple. Login as a domain admin and execute the following from the command line;

csvde -f file.csv

Beware that this will dump everything from your directory and may be quite a bit more information than you are looking for, and there are methods to limit the scope of information returned. Here is a link to the reference on TechNet.

I would recommend using adfind (http://joeware.net), it’s a lot easier to pull the information you desire.

Thanks for the hint Steve, I’ve never seen that before. I’ll give it a shot.
