PSSharedGoods

PSSharedGoods is little PowerShell Module that primary purpose is to be useful for multiple tasks, unrelated to each other. I've created this module as “a glue” between my other modules.

Curated Examples

Convert identities and SIDs

Use PSSharedGoods identity helpers to normalize account names and SIDs.

This pattern is useful when reporting code receives mixed domain names, local identities, and raw SID values.

It comes from the source example at Examples/ConvertIdentity1.ps1.

When to use this pattern

You need a consistent identity shape for reporting.
You receive a mix of account names and SIDs.
You want helper output before permission remediation.

Example

Import-Module .\PSSharedGoods.psd1 -Force

@(
    Convert-Identity -Identity 'Everyone'
    Convert-Identity -Identity 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM'
    ConvertTo-SID -Identity 'Domain Admins'
) | Format-Table

What this demonstrates

normalizing identity values
using helper commands before reporting
handling multiple identity input forms
