# Get-ADResourcePropertyList: inventory adresource property list against recorded identity and DNS state > Use Get-ADResourcePropertyList to review this narrow operational decision without extending the source beyond its stated scope. - Canonical URL: https://update.dsesecurity.com/updates/get-adresourcepropertylist-inventory-adresource-property-list-against-recorded-identity-and-dns/ - Publisher: Detection Systems & Engineering (DSE Security) - Author: DSE Security Editorial Team - Published: 2026-08-27T17:04:13+00:00 - Modified: 2026-08-27T17:18:34+00:00 - Last reviewed by DSE: 2026-08-27 - Resource type: Explainer - DSE priority: Advisory - Topics: Cybersecurity, Microsoft 365 & Identity, Networks & Infrastructure - Reading time: 3 minutes ## What you need to know Use Get-ADResourcePropertyList to review this narrow operational decision without extending the source beyond its stated scope. ## Potentially affected Teams, systems, services, or facilities within the stated scope of Get-ADResourcePropertyList ## DSE recommendation Compare the observed state with the cited official source, document applicability and exceptions, and test any approved change with rollback safeguards. ## Article Frame this document as a source-led configuration and assurance check: Get-ADResourcePropertyList: inventory adresource property list against recorded identity and DNS state. Only the official source and traced locations below supply facts. Confirm applicability before acting. ## Source fact: The official [Get-ADResourcePropertyList](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/activedirectory/get-adresourcepropertylist?view=windowsserver2025-ps) from Microsoft supports the following bounded statements: - At DESCRIPTION, Microsoft states: “The Get-ADResourcePropertyList cmdlet gets resource property lists from Active Directory.” The research record locates this support at DESCRIPTION. - At Example 1: Get all resource property lists, Microsoft states: “This command gets a list of all resource property lists.” The research record locates this support at Example 1: Get all resource property lists. The source support ends with the statements listed above. Use them to examine Active Directory objects, search bases, domain controllers, delegated roles, cmdlet parameters, and the DNS paths used to locate directory services in the applicable environment, not to imply a wider guarantee. ## What the source does not establish The cited page and retained statements do not establish the current state of any DSE or customer environment, prove that the documented configuration is applicable, or authorize a production change. Confirm supported versions, dependencies, and the current live source before use. The citation is not a substitute for observed state, authorization, compliance evidence, or dependency health. Examine Active Directory replication, Windows DNS, domain-controller location, time, network reachability, privileges, and protected credentials before translating the source into an operational decision. ## Applicability questions - For source statement 1 at DESCRIPTION, which observable configuration, record, or test can confirm applicability here? - For source statement 2 at Example 1: Get all resource property lists, which observable configuration, record, or test can confirm applicability here? - What inventory proves which parts of Active Directory objects, search bases, domain controllers, delegated roles, cmdlet parameters, and the DNS paths used to locate directory services are in and out of scope? - Which condition in Active Directory replication, Windows DNS, domain-controller location, time, network reachability, privileges, and protected credentials must be healthy before evidence is trustworthy? - What result would disprove the working assumption and return the issue to the owner? ## DSE recommendation: DSE recommends using the cited source as the evidence anchor for this decision. Make the source, asset scope, owner, and expected outcome explicit in the review record. Record the source location, examined part of Active Directory objects, search bases, domain controllers, delegated roles, cmdlet parameters, and the DNS paths used to locate directory services, observed and expected states, owner, and reason for deviation. If the review warrants change, use a bounded implementation with prerequisites, test population, monitoring, abort criteria, and a rehearsed reversal. Sequence checks for Active Directory replication, Windows DNS, domain-controller location, time, network reachability, privileges, and protected credentials and sanitize protected material before retention. ## Verification and evidence Tie each conclusion back to DESCRIPTION; Example 1: Get all resource property lists and to observable material such as sanitized command transcripts, parameter records, directory exports, authorization records, DNS locator tests, and before-and-after state. Preserve provenance and stable identifiers without copying secrets into the evidence set. Label this evidence set DSE-20260827-193 so observations, approvals, exceptions, and later rechecks cannot be substituted from another source review. Close the review only when the evidence, exception handling, resulting action, and after-state are linked. Schedule a new review after material technical, organizational, incident, or source changes; today’s observation is not a continuing guarantee. ## Official references - [Get-ADResourcePropertyList](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/activedirectory/get-adresourcepropertylist?view=windowsserver2025-ps) — Microsoft ## Primary reference - Name: Get-ADResourcePropertyList - Authority: Microsoft Learn - URL: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/activedirectory/get-adresourcepropertylist?view=windowsserver2025-ps - Source publication date: Not stated by the source ## Citation and use Preferred citation: “Get-ADResourcePropertyList: inventory adresource property list against recorded identity and DNS state,” DSE Security, https://update.dsesecurity.com/updates/get-adresourcepropertylist-inventory-adresource-property-list-against-recorded-identity-and-dns/ Publishing principles: https://update.dsesecurity.com/updates/dse-updates-editorial-methodology/ Usage and citation policy: https://update.dsesecurity.com/usage/ Copyright © 2026 Detection Systems & Engineering.
