Powershell - Sharepoint Add AzMan Roles Providers in groups

Question

How i can use Powershell from Add AzMan Roles Providers in Sharepoint groups?

Don't work:

$appGlobalGroup = "portal - owners"                           
$AZappMainGroup1 = "c:0ǵ.c|azmanrolesprovider|administrator"  
$AZappMainGroup2 = "c:0ǵ.c|azmanrolesprovider|user"  
$WebAppUrl ="http://testportal/"   

Set-SPUser -Identity $AZappMainGroup1 -Group $appGlobalGroup -Web $WebAppUrl -DisplayName "All AzMan Admin"
Set-SPUser -Identity $AZappMainGroup2 -Group $appGlobalGroup -Web $WebAppUrl -DisplayName "All AzMan User"

Error: Set-SPUser : You must specify a valid user object or user identity.

Hi syit,

It seems You can only load a custom role  provider when doing Forms based authentication.  So, you can't use Azman as a role provider when trying to use an AD domain as the authentication source.  You would need to use AD groups with Windows authentication.

For more information, please refer to:

Thanks,
