Get Members of Active Directory Group

So you have a AD Group and you need to find out, who are the members of this group. You could use some LDAP Browser tool. But it’s possible to use Microsoft PowerShell for that:

Here is the code:

	# Define LDAP search root, the Global catalog of the domain
	$sLDAPSearchRoot="LDAP://YOUR.CORP.ORG"
	# The Groupname to looking for
	$sGroupName="AD_GROUPNAME"
	# The query string
	$sSearchStr ="(&(objectCategory=group)(name="+$sGroupName+"))"
	# Get the search object
	$oSearch=New-Object directoryservices.DirectorySearcher($oADRoot,$sSearchStr)
	# Looking for the group
	$oFindResult=$oSearch.FindAll()
	$oGroup=New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry($oFindResult.Path)
	$oGroup.member | Out-GridView
