Hello,

I am trying to email the following PowerShell output to a certain email address. Is there a way to do that?

Search-ADAccount -AccountExpiring -TimeSpan "365" | Select-Object Name, SamAccountName, AccountExpirationDate | Sort-Object AccountExpirationDate

Thank you.

    Hi @Shamyog ,

    one option could be using Send-MailMessage: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/send-mailmessage?view=powershell-7.2

    Just put the query result of your command in a variable and it's possible to use this as body of the email.
