How to Use PowerShell to Fix Incorrect MA References on Portal Sync Rules

FIM ScriptBox Item

Summary

This script replaces the MA ID references in portal sync rules. If you run into the errors described in this post and get the "sync-rule-validation-parsing-error; referenced MA has been deleted" you can't open the sync rules in the portal to correct the issue. This powershell script will replace the reference ID's on all affected sync rules.

 

Note

Make sure you have the correct MA id references!.
