Set-ADClaimType: adding suggestions

[DeKade]

I want to programmatically add Suggested Values for an ADClaimType

I can only find this command: Set-ADClaimType https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/lib ... .630).aspx
It seems it only takes New-Object Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADSuggestedValueEntry as argument for -SuggestedValues
Each entry seperated by a comma.

Ofcourse if I do this, I lose the current values in that collection.
So my train of thought was to load those in first, and Re-add them with the Set Cmdlet, together with the new value.

I have my Current Suggested values in an Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.ADPropertyValueCollection $(Get-ADClaimType -identity "name").SuggestedValues

But how do I get those Values on the command Line seperated by a comma?

The command line takes an array - collection. Just use it.

I kinda solved this by casting the SuggestedValues I got from Get-ADClaimType -identity "name").SuggestedValues
from a ADPropertyValueCollection to a regular Object[] ..

Set-ADClaimType -SuggestedValues takes this regular Object[] as argument as mentioned above


Kinda strange there is no "add" functionality for that Collection?
I'm new to powershell: I've seen some @{add= syntax, but that doesn't seem to work with this.

The purpose of defining the parameter as [object[]] is because it will automatically do the cast for you. That is how parameters work in most languages.
