Manage users and groups with an Amazon EC2 instance
This section includes procedures for managing users and groups with an Amazon EC2 instance that's joined to your AWS Managed Microsoft AD.
We recommend managing users and groups with an Amazon EC2 instance if the Directory Service Data API doesn't support your use case. For more information, see the AWS Directory Service Data API Reference.
Note
Before you complete any of the procedures in the following topics, you must install the Active Directory administration tools. For more information, see Install the Active Directory administration tools.
