How to check which sharepoint groups a user is a member of

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a command either in the SharePoint Online Management Shell or in the web interface itself to be able to find out which groups a sharepoint user is in... Similarly to how you can view 'member of' by opening a user in Exchange and viewing the distribution and security groups the user is a member of.

Thanks

    hi samir,

    with powershell, we can use the following command to find the sharepoint groups a user belongs to within a site collection.

    get-spouser -site https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/finance -loginname *** Email address is removed for privacy *** | fl

     

    in sharepoint online webpage, we can find the group information by checking the user’s permissions to a site collection. go to a site collection, then click gear icon > site settings > site permissions > check permissions.

     

    regards,
