System Manager PowerShell command to create AD User

Question

I am trying to run a PowerShell command to create an ad user in an active directory hosted in one of the EC2 instances.

New-ADUser -Name 'Batman Gotham' -AccountPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString 'Password@1234' -AsPlainText -Force) -DisplayName 'Batman Gotham' -GivenName 'Batman' -SamAccountName '[email protected]' -Surname 'Gotham' -EmailAddress '[email protected]' -UserPrincipalName '[email protected]' -MobilePhone '8888888888' -Title 'Staff Super Hero' -Department 'Batman Cloud Services' -Enabled $True -StreetAddress 'Gotham Street' -City 'Gotham' -State 'CA' -Country 'USA' -Path 'CN=Users,OU=Operations,DC=darknight,DC=com' -employeeNumber '1234567' -ChangePasswordAtLogon $True

but I am getting the below error in the system manager and am not able to find more details about the error:

New-ADUser : The name provided is not a properly formed account name

Does any one have seen this issue before?

Answer 1

Updating SamAccountName fixed the issue:

New-ADUser -Name 'Batman Gotham' -AccountPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString 'Password@1234' -AsPlainText -Force) -DisplayName 'Batman Gotham' -GivenName 'Batman' -SamAccountName 'batman.gotham' -Surname 'Gotham' -EmailAddress '[email protected]' -UserPrincipalName '[email protected]' -MobilePhone '8888888888' -Title 'Staff Super Hero' -Department 'Batman Cloud Services' -Enabled $True -StreetAddress 'Gotham Street' -City 'Gotham' -State 'CA' -Country 'USA' -Path 'CN=Users,OU=Operations,DC=darknight,DC=com' -employeeNumber '1234567' -ChangePasswordAtLogon $True
