<a name="ms_ad_manage_users_groups_procedures"></a>

You can use the Amazon Web Services Management Console, Amazon CLI, or Amazon Tools for PowerShell to manage your Amazon Managed Microsoft AD users and groups with [Amazon Directory Service Data](ms_ad_getting_started_directory_service_data.md). The Amazon CLI commands use the `ds-data` namespace. The PowerShell commands use the `AWS.Tools.DirectoryServiceData` module. For more information, see [Getting started with Amazon CLI](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-getting-started.html) and [Getting started with Amazon Tools for PowerShell](https://docs.amazonaws.cn//powershell/latest/userguide/pstools-getting-set-up.html).
