Description

Create a user instance. The instance has not yet been saved. Use the SetUser parameter or assign the result to a variable then call "Set-RDMUser $s" to save the user.

Examples

Example 1

PS C:\> $user = New-RDMUser -AuthenticationType SqlServer -Login 'PSTest' -Password (ConvertTo-SecureString -String 'password' -AsPlainText -Force) -SetUser

Create & save new user.

Example 2

PS C:\> $user = New-RDMUser -Login 'domain\username' -IntegratedSecurity -SkipCreateSQLServerLogin; $user.UserType = 'User'; Set-RDMUser $user

Before everything, the administrator add the login/user to the database. Create the user domain\username with integrated security. The SkipCreateSQLServerLogin switch indicates the administrator will manually add the information in the database. Change the user type from read-only to user and save the user.

Example 3

PS C:\> $user = = New-RDMUser -AuthenticationType SqlServer -Login 'PSTest' -Password (ConvertTo-SecureString -String 'password' -AsPlainText -Force);
        $user.UserInfo.UserProfile.Company = 'UsersCompany';
        $user.UserInfo.UserProfile.Department = 'UsersDepartment';
        $user.UserInfo.UserProfile.Address = '123 UsersAddress';
        $user.UserInfo.UserProfile.Phone = '555-0100';
        Set-RDMUser -User $user

Create a user and add some details about him before saving him.
