Remove CSV List of users as Member to Azure AD group via Powershell

Question

I'm trying to remove users from a csv file in Azure AD and the command outputs that the account was removed, but it wasn't.

the script is pointing out a failure on line 9 could not find a parameter that matches the parameter name

Any ideas or ways I could adjust?

I can add the same users in bulk to a group, but removing them still generates this error.

PS C:\Windows\system32> $GroupName = "M365_F1"
$UserList = Import-Csv -Path "C:\temp\test_licenses_m365_F1.csv"

foreach ($User in $UserList) {
    $UserPrincipalName = $User.UserPrincipalName
    $Group = Get-AzureADGroup -Filter "DisplayName eq '$GroupName'"
    $UserToRemove = Get-AzureADUser -Filter "UserPrincipalName eq '$UserPrincipalName'"
    if ($UserToRemove -ne $null -and $Group -ne $null) {
        Remove-AzureADGroupMember -ObjectId $Group.ObjectId -Members $UserToRemove.ObjectId
        Write-Host "Removed $UserPrincipalName from $GroupName"
    } else {
        Write-Host "User or Group not found: $UserPrincipalName or $GroupName"
    }
}
Remove-AzureADGroupMember : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'Members'.

Hi @Joao Manoel Castilho Franco ,

please try this:

$GroupName = "M365_F1"
$UserList = Import-Csv -Path "C:\temp\test_licenses_m365_F1.csv"
foreach ($User in $UserList) {
    $UserPrincipalName = $User.UserPrincipalName
    $Group = Get-AzureADGroup -Filter "DisplayName eq '$GroupName'"
    $UserToRemove = Get-AzureADUser -Filter "UserPrincipalName eq '$UserPrincipalName'"
    if ($UserToRemove -ne $null -and $Group -ne $null) {
        Remove-AzureADGroupMember -ObjectId $Group.ObjectId -MemberId $UserToRemove.ObjectId
        Write-Host "Removed $UserPrincipalName from $GroupName"
    }
    else {
        Write-Host "User or Group not found: $UserPrincipalName or $GroupName"
    }
}

The parameter of Remove-AzureADGroupMember should be -MemberId instead of -Members.
