# Using IIS Admin Objects

The IIS Admin Objects, described in this section, are provided by IIS to make programmatic administration as straightforward as possible. The IIS Admin Objects are based on Microsoft Active Directory Service Interfaces (ADSI), are Automation-compatible, and can be easily accessed and manipulated by any language that supports Automation, such as Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) or JScript in Active Server Pages (ASP), Visual Basic, Java, or C++.

This section contains:

- IIS Admin Objects Overview: Introduces the IIS Admin Objects and describes what they are and how they are used.
- Administrative Tasks Using the IIS Admin Objects: Describes how you can use the IIS Admin Objects for common programmatic administration tasks.

For more information, see IIS Admin Objects Reference, Programmatic Administration Reference, and Programmatic Administration Examples.
