This did not work for me I have come across a script Import-CSV C:\FileName.csv | ForEach {Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "DG Name" -Member $_.Name} to add contacts to a distribution list but what fields/information needs to be set in the csv file? Thanks

Hi, If these are mail contacts, you can just follow this way to add in a distribution group: $contacts=get-Mailcontact $contacts| foreach-object{ Add-DistributionGroupMember -identity "DG Name" -Member $_.Name} If you use CSV files(C:\FileName.csv), included contacts like this: Name contact1 contact2 ... Then use the command in your post to add in one distribution group: Import-CSV C:\FileName.csv | ForEach {Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "DG Name" -Member $_.Name} Thanks, Evan Liu TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com Evan Liu TechNet Community Support
