Hello @EnterpriseArchitect

Thank you for reaching out. I would request you to please use following filter clause and it should work:

Get-MgGroup -Filter "groupTypes/any(c:c eq 'DynamicMembership')" -All:$true | Select-Object Displayname,MembershipRule

Sample Output:

Hi @Harpreet ,
Thank you for the update, would it be possible to get the membership as well for the specific Dynamic group name with the name 'Marvel' from your example ?

I guess you can use below commands to get desired output.

$Group = Get-MgGroup -Filter "DisplayName eq 'Marvel'" Get-MgGroupMember -GroupId $Group.Id -All

From your sample PowerShell, it looks as though you're trying to use Get-MgGroup and filter/return just the dynamic groups. The following simple PowerShell will achieve this:

Get-MgGroup -Filter "groupTypes/any(c:c eq 'DynamicMembership')" -All:$true
