You can use the Get-CIUser cmdlet to retrieve vCloud users. The Get-CIUser cmdlet has an alias Get-PIUser.

The syntax of the Get-CIUser cmdlet is as follows and the first parameter set is the default:

Get-CIUser [[-Name] <String[]>] [-Org <Org[]>] [-Role <CIRole[]>]
    [-Server <CIServer[]>] [<CommonParameters>]

The second parameter set is to retrieve vCloud users by ID:

Get-CIUser -Id <String[]> [-Server <CIServer[]>] [<CommonParameters>]

The -Id parameter is required.

In the following example, we will retrieve the user [email protected] and format the output in a list view:

PowerCLI C:> Get-CIUser -Name [email protected] | Format-List
