Find the SID of an Active Directory user

A SID is a unique ID that identifies an Active Directory user; you require a SID when configuring Hub application settings, for the Active Directory user that Hub uses as the root administrator.

To find the SID of an Active Directory user

1. Run the Windows Command Prompt as an administrator.
2. Type the following command:
   wmic useraccount where name='{username}' get sid
   Where username is the Active Directory username for the user you want to use as the Hub root administrator.
3. Press the Enter key; the SID number for the specified user appears in the command prompt window.
