I have a list of computers that I need to find a specific AD Group Membership and output to csv.
How can I do this from PS ?
Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership (Get-ADComputer ComputerName) | select-object name
Thanks you
You are not trying to find groups of users, but computers. using Get-ADPrincipalGroupMembership is useless.
Get-Content .\ListOfComputer.txt | Get-ADComputer -properties Memberof
| Where-Object {$_.MemberOf -like "*Specific Word*"} | export-csv SpecificADGroupMembership.csv -Append

I'm trying to get all groups that start with the following string from a user "DIR-*". With the following command I get all the groups of the user.
Get-ADUser -Identity $username -Properties memberof | Select-Object -ExpandProperty memberof
I then tried to filter with this, but that doesn't work because the list remains empty.
Get-ADUser -Identity $username -Properties memberof | Select-Object -ExpandProperty memberof | Where-Object {$_.CN -like "DIR-*"}
Unfortunately, I am still a complete beginner when it comes to Powershell, but I need the command promptly.
I thank you for any help.
I am new to powershell so please excuse me if the answer is quite simple. I am trying to get user list sorted by selected AD groups and export that to table or csv at least. Due to the fact that:
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity "TestGroupName"
... gives me only user IDs for my AD, I used below:
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity "TestGroupName" | Get-ADObject -Properties displayName
This works perfectly but I do not want to type manually each group there so I decided to first export groups that I need which are beginning with "Test":
Get-ADGroup -Filter "name -like 'Test*'" |Select-Object Name | Export-csv -path \Groups.csv
Now I want to use information from Groups.csv to list all user displayName for groups listed in Groups.csv so I tried something like that:
Import-Csv -Path .\Groups.csv | Get-ADGroupMember ForEach($Name in $Groups) | Get-ADObject -Properties displayName | Export-csv -path \UsersByGroups.csv
unfortunately it does not work properly maybe because I still do not get exactly how to use ForEach
Can someone with more experience have a look and help?
Thanks!

Just pipe the groups output by Get-ADGroup -Filter ... directly to Get-ADGroupMember:
Get-ADGroup -Filter "name -like 'Test*'" |Get-ADGroupMember |Get-ADObject -Properties displayName
I'm trying to get an AD Security Group down to a manageable size, but due to display limits in Powershell, this is proving difficult for me. The group is down to 47,720 now after removing all disabled AD accounts. Now I'm trying to filter it down to Enabled users that live in this particular OU. Below is what I've used with success in the console.
Get-ADGroup "very_large_secgroup" -properties Member | Select-Object -expandproperty member | get-aduser -Filter * -SearchBase "OU=PurgeStudents,OU=DisabledAccounts,DC=contoso,DC=com" | Select-Object SamAccountName,DistinguishedName
When I try to count this, or pipe it via Out-File though, I get:
get-aduser : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters for the command either because the command does not take pipeline input or the input and its properties do not match any of the parameters that
take pipeline input.
At line:1 char:92
+ ... ty member | get-aduser -Filter * -SearchBase "OU=PurgeStudents,OU=Dis ...
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, as I am a novice in Powershell magic.
Instead of using -Filter *, you could filter for all previous retrieved users. And there is a cmdlet to get the members of a group:
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity "very_large_secgroup" -Recursive | Foreach-Object {Get-ADUser -Filter "Name -like $_.Name" -SearchBase "OU=PurgeStudents,OU=DisabledAccounts,DC=contoso,DC=com" | Select-Object -Properties SamAccountName, DistinguishedName}
I need to write a powershell script that will take in an OU
and return all the groups and their owners but if no owner then all the members
I have almost 0 powershell knowledge any help would be useful, I do that the active directory module installed
Try this sample:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory ;
Get-ADGroup -Filter {name -like "*Your Group Name*"} -Properties Description,info | Select Name,samaccountname #| Export-Csv D:\output.csv -NoTypeInformation
Get-ADGroupMember YourGroupName # to list members ;
I'm in the process of cleaning up my inherited Domain Admins group and remove service accounts that are no longer needed. I'm trying to pull the group membership of the Domain Admins group and feed it into a Get-ADUser, with little success.
$name = Get-ADGroupMember "domain admins" | select -ExpandProperty Name
Foreach-Object {
Get-ADUser -Filter { Name -Like "$name"} -Properties * | FT Name, LastLogonDate
}
If I run the Get-ADGroupMember by itself it works. If I run the Get-ADUser with a name from the list (instead of the $name variable) it works. But when I attempt to tie them together it does not work.
I am glad you were able to make it work but I would like to offer some advice. First don't use -Properties * when all you really needed was LastLogonDate. You are pulling more data than you need to. Also you don't even need the ForEach loop since Get-Aduser will accept the pipeline input very nicely.
Get-ADGroupMember "domain admins" | Get-ADUser -Properties LastLogonDate |
Select Name,LastLogonDate
or if you really want console output, as supposed to standard output
Get-ADGroupMember "domain admins" | Get-ADUser -Properties LastLogonDate |
Format-Table Name,LastLogonDate -AutoSize
Thanks #EBGreen, your comment pointed me in the right direction. I am able to get what I need with the following:
Get-ADGroupMember "domain admins" | select -ExpandProperty SamAccountName | % {
$name=$_
Get-ADUser $_ -Properties *
} | FT Name, LastLogonDate -AutoSize
