I am able to use Active Directory activities by taking an AD Group Name and using Get Users In Group (on AD Group Name) and then Get User Properties – one of the attributes in here is EMPLOYEEID.
However, I want to be able to query Active Directory only on an EMPLOYEEID only (as I don’t know which AD Group Name they belong to), and return the user properties belonging to this employeeid value.
Ofcourse, 2 minutes after I posted my question I figured it out myself, but I’ll post my solution here in case anybody else has this question
I used the Get Objects By Filter activity with these parameters
Class = user
Category = person
Property to filter by = employeeid
Property value = {{the employee ID I want to query on}}
Then I just use Get Object Properties to get the user details from this result.
