Description

Hello,

My environment has had the AD user schema extended to have ExtensionAttribute1-15.
I am currently supporting this by leveraging native Set-AdUser -Replace @{Extensionattribute1 = 'myvalue'}
Retrieval involves Get-AdUser abc -Properties ExtensionAttribute1
Is this possible to support within the AdUser resource? Wanted to ask for guidance, thanks in advance.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the AdUser resource and its documentation, then compare its supported properties with the native Set-AdUser and Get-AdUser commands described here; done would require a documented decision on ExtensionAttribute1-15 support and a defined implementation scope.
