Here are two ways, I prefer Parse to split in this case:
let MemberTable = datatable (cn:string) [ "CN=test test, OU=something, OU=Something, OU=Something" ]; MemberTable | parse cn with * "CN=" strcnName "," * | project split(split(cn,",").[0],"=").[1] , strcnName

Thanks for your reply, had parse and split in the loop, but could not get a clean output
got something like [cn=Name Name]
instead of Name Name

Maybe this a JSON rather than a string?
Could you copy & paste one line of the real output from the real table? Please remove any PII but leave the format!
e.g.MemberTable | limit 1- Stig_hjJul 24, 2020Copper Contributor
Hi Clive
Thanks for the inputs it triggered some thoughts and I got the right output with a small alteration in the added script
