This feature has been out since June 2022 and it's STILL in preview.

 

This feature is pretty useless as it currently stands. You can use it for only one use case - "is member of this group." that's it. You can't say "is member of this group, but not this group" or "member of this group and employeetype=Employee".

 

Completely useless for most use cases guys. This has so much potential but it's so extremely limited to solve only one small problem. Fortunately, I'm great at PowerShell.
