DESCRIPTION

The Set-JCUser function updates an existing JumpCloud user account. Common use cases are account locks and unlocks, email address updates, or custom attribute modifications. Actions can be completed in bulk for multiple users by using the pipeline and Parameter Binding to query users with the Get-JCUser function and then applying updates with Set-JCUser function.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

PS C:\> Set-JCUser -Username cclemons -account_locked $false

This example unlocks the account for the user with username cclemons by setting the value of the property -account_locked to $false.

Example 2

PS C:\> Set-JCUser -Username cclemons -account_locked $true -email '[email protected]'

This example locks the account for user with username cclemons by setting the value of the property -account_locked to $true and also updates the email address for this user to '[email protected]'.

Example 3

PS C:\> Get-JCUser | Select-Object _id, @{ Name = 'email'; Expression = { ($_.email).replace('olddomain.com','newdomain.com') }} | foreach {Set-JCUser -ByID -UserID $_._id -email $_.email}

This example updates the domain on the email addresses associated with every user in the JumpCloud tenant using Parameter Binding, the pipeline, and a calculated property. The 'olddomain.com' would represent the current domain and the 'newdomain.com' would be the new domain.

Example 4

PS C:\> Get-JCUserGroupMember -GroupName 'Sales' | Set-JCUser -NumberOfCustomAttributes 1 -Attribute1_name 'Department' -Attribute1_value 'Sales'

This example either updates or adds the Custom Attribute 'name = Department, value = Sales' to all JumpCloud Users in the JumpCloud User Group 'Sales'

Example 5

PS C:\> Get-JCUserGroupMember -GroupName 'Sales' | Set-JCUser -RemoveAttribute Department

This example removes the Custom Attribute with the name 'Department' from all JumpCloud Users in the JumpCloud User Group 'Sales'

Example 6

PS C:\> Set-JCUser -Username cclemons -enable_user_portal_multifactor $True -enrollmentdays 14

This example enables the account for the user with username cclemons for MFA login to the user portal and sets an enrollment period of 14 days.
