Hi,

I imported AD users and groups into my episerver. It seems, I can import only group names but not other properties of the group like Description, Notes....

Pls let me know if there any way to import group properties into episerver.

Thanks.

AD groups are imported into the aspnet_Roles table in your SQL Server database using a stored procedure called aspnet_Roles_CreateRole.

The aspnet_Roles table has a column for Description, but I'm unsure if that is actually imported from AD when aspnet_Roles_CreateRole runs - open your db and check that column.

Importing other group properties is not supported out of the box with the default ActiveDirectory/Windows providers. You would have to build your own provider, I think.
