Restore deleted AD user on Sharepoint RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi,

    I do have SharePoint 2013 Farm scenario on my Production environment with Active Directory on Server 2008R2. While doing some cleaning up my SharePoint users on AD, I mistakenly deleted another SharePoint user which does not needed to be deleted and there was not enabled Active directory Recycle Bin too...  Once I realized that i have deleted wrong SharePoint user, I create a new user with same login name so that user can access to his SharePoint account. I thought this will work, but now user is complaining that he is not able to access SharePoint anymore.

    Can anyone help me to sort out his issue?? Thank you.

  • Hi Aerrow- did you add him with permissions on SharePoint after creating his account? How did you add him, in a group or individually? Other things: have the user exit out of all browser windows, then re-open the browser and try again. You may also have to run a crawl.

  • Hi Aerrow,

    I am agreed with cameron  as he said user profile synchronization in user profile service need to perform to sync the user from AD to Sharepoint.

    Here you can try to force a sync with the following command

    Get-SPUser –Web https://mysitecollection | Set-SPUser –SyncFromAD

    Set-SPUser –Identity "domain\username" –SyncFromAD –Web https://mysitecollection
