Question

trying to add an ad group as collection member

get-cmuser only retrieves User objects not groups...

Answer 1

Depending on exactly what your end goal is, you can use either Add-CMDeviceCollectionDirectMembershipRule or Add-CMUserCollectionQueryMembershipRule.

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.
It looks like you want to create a user collection based on an AD user group, you may try the cmdlet to add a query rule for your collection:

Add-CMUserCollectionQueryMembershipRule -CollectionName "xxxxx" -QueryExpression "select * from SMS_R_User where SMS_R_User.SecurityGroupName ='xxxxxxx'" -RuleName "xxxxx"  

Note: Make sure you have enabled and completed the AD Group Discovery

A query rule did the job.
