PowerShell script to return members of multiple security groups

Question

I need to return all members of multiple security groups using PowerShell. Handily, all of the groups start with the same letters.

I can return a list of all the rel

Answer 1

This will give you a list of a single group, and the members of each group.

param
(   
    [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,position=0)]
    [String]$GroupName
)

import-module activedirectory

# optional, add a wild card..
# $groups = $groups + "*"

$Groups = Get-ADGroup -filter {Name -like $GroupName} | Select-Object Name

ForEach ($Group in $Groups)
   {write-host " "
    write-host "$($group.name)"
    write-host "----------------------------"

    Get-ADGroupMember -identity $($groupname) -recursive | Select-Object samaccountname

 }
write-host "Export Complete"

If you want the friendly name, or other details, add them to the end of the select-object query.
