Hello All, We have an requirement to automate DL tasks such as creating a DL, updating a DL (add or remove users in a DL) and delete a DL. Can someone please share some inputs and the way to achieve this. I have enabled Orchestration plugin for this. Thanks in advance.

You can do this pretty easily through the Run Powershell activity by loading the Active Directory PoweShell module and running your own scripts.



Orchestration now also includes a bunch of Exchange activities:http://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Orchestration_Exchange_Activities#gsc.tab=0


Unfortunately we are in Office365 and the link didnt help. But thanks for the input. Looking at what Pradeep said.


Ahh, okay. I didn't realize you were using 365. Maybe your can integrate this article into your Run Powershell activities: http://o365info.com/manage-distribution-groups-by-using/
