I have users in a specific OU in Active Directory and need to retrieve the values in the cfCardNumber attribute which is in the Attribute Editor. I have tried for an individual;
Get-ADuser -Identity "joe.bloggs" -Properties * | Select-Object Name,cfCardnumber
cfCardNumber is blank
and
Get-ADUser -Identity "joe.bloggs" -Properties * | Format-List
cfCardNumber does not even appear
How do I get this value?
Thank you
PowerShell

Have you tried launching your script with "Run as administrator"?
Has the cfCardNumber property been added to your schema by 3rd-party software, or by your AD admin extending the AD schema?
