Can I use Get-PnPUserProfileProperty with SharePoint 2013 On Premise?

Question

The Get-PnPUserProfileProperty (part of the Officedev Pnp Powershell commandlets) can be used to query User Profiles on SharePoint Online. We must connect to the tenant admin website (https://:-admin.sharepoint.com) with Connect-PnPOnline in order to use this cmdlet with SharePoint Online.

I would like to use the commandlet to talk to an On Premise SharePoint server too

I've tested this, but as far as I can see this commandlet is not included in the On Premise version of the Officedev PNP Powershell Commandlets. In the documentation I cannot find a definite answer.

Can someone confirm that this commandlet does indeed not work with SharePoint Server?

Answer 1

that commands is only for the SPO not for on-prem. But you can use the below powershell to query the User's profile in on-prem.

The basic PowerShell code for getting a user profile, using the user's login name:

[void][reflection.assembly]::Loadwithpartialname("Microsoft.Office.Server");            
$site=new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("https://c05470sp10:7443");            
$serviceContext = Get-SPServiceContext $site;            
$site.Dispose();            
$upm = new-object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($serviceContext);
$userProfile = $upm.GetUserProfile("company\myarlett");

this will list all properties

$userProfile.Properties | sort DisplayName | FT DisplayName,Name,@{Label="Type";Expression={$_.CoreProperty.Type}}
