Hi All,
I’m currently trying to run a one-liner to filter out a list of users with a particular e-mail address from a secuirty group in AD but i’m not having much success.
The script i’ve got so far is as follows…
[blockquote]
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity “CN=The Group,OU=The OU,DC=The DC” | Get-ADUser | Where-Object {$_.UserPrincipalName -contains “*emailaddress”}
[/blockquote]
When I run that, PowerShell doesn’t error it just acts as if it’s done something but produces no data, once I do get this to work I then plan to export it but obviously I need this bit to work first, can anyone put me out of my misery please?
Use -like instead of -contains
So :
Get-ADGroupMember -Identity "CN=The Group,OU=The OU,DC=The DC" | Get-ADUser | Where-Object {$_.UserPrincipalName -like "*emailaddress"}
Tried that, same problem.
Thanks anyway.
It’s a strange one, worked fine on my system after i did that.
Only thing i can think off, do your UPN’s definately match your email addresses? Any reason you’re not querying the emailaddress attribute?
Nevermind it’s me being an idiot, it works perfectly.
I did a test using an e-mail address I know is defintely within the group and it returned back as I expected so it means the e-mail addresses i’m looking for within the group don’t exist!
Thanks for all your help.
