Description
The Get-MsolGroup cmdlet gets groups from Azure Active Directory. This cmdlet can be used to return a single group, if you specify the ObjectId parameter, or to search within all groups.

PS C:\> Get-MsolGroup -ObjectId aaaaaaaa-0000-1111-2222-bbbbbbbbbbbb
This command returns the group object that has the specified ID.
Example 2: Get all groups
PS C:\> Get-MsolGroup
This command returns the entire set of groups for the tenant, up to the default 250 results.
Example 3: Get a group by using a user principal name

This command returns the agent groups that a user is a member of. This only applies for companies that have partner privileges.
