KB-8025:How to add a local user or group using Centrify DirectControl SDK

Authentication Service ,  

30 December,16 at 01:06 AM

Applies to:
DirectControl SDK version 5.3.1 and higher on all platforms

Question:
How do you add a local user and a local group to the zone using C#API, VBS, and PowerShell?

Answer:
To add local user to a zone, use API AddLocalUserPartialProfile 

To add local group to a zone, use API AddLocalGroupPartialProfile 

We have also included some sample code examples (C#, VBS and PowerShell) in SDK for adding, removing and enumerating the local user/group profiles: 

* add_partial_local_user 

* add_partial_local_group 

* enumerate_local_user_profiles 

* enumerate_local_group_profiles 

* remove_local_user 

* remove_local_group 

Make sure the latest version of the SDK 5.3.1 is used.

Please follow the reference guide for Windows API Programmer’s Guide for more details.
