Reply To: Using powershell to import a csv file for OU's

You don’t have to be on a specific server, the previously shared code could be run from any machine with RSAT tools. Otherwise, you would need to use ADSI to create the OU’s:

# OU.csv
#
#”Name”,”Path”
#”MyNewOU1″, “DC=FABRIKAM,DC=COM”
#”MyNewOU2″, “DC=FABRIKAM,DC=COM”
#”MyNewOU3″, “DC=FABRIKAM,DC=COM”

Import-CSV C:\Users\rob\desktop\OU.csv | ForEach{
$OU = [adsi](“LDAP://{0}” -f $_.Path)
$CreateOU = $OU.Create(“OrganizationalUnit”,(“OU={0}” -f $_.Name))
$CreateOU.SetInfo()
}

I did not test the above code, so be sure to test the code prior to running against an entire CSV by just running the bolded code with static values.
