Powershell script to get all group membership(UG or DL) and remove that user only to that group

Hi,   May I ask for your assistance to edit this script from Microsoft instead of checking every group that a user is member of maybe I could use the variable $filter in removing the user also?   ...
exchange
microsoft 365 groups
office 365

You can combine the two scripts as follows. Here you search the groups where the user is member and then removes the user from those groups.

 

$email= read-host -prompt "user@domain.com"
$Mailbox=get-Mailbox $email
$DN=$mailbox.DistinguishedName
$Filter = "Members -like ""$DN"""
Get-DistributionGroup -ResultSize Unlimited -Filter $Filter | %{Remove-DistributionGroupMember -identity $_.name -Member $email -confirm:$false}
Get-UnifiedGroup -ResultSize Unlimited -Filter $Filter | %{Remove-UnifiedGroupLinks -Identity $_.name -LinkType Members -Links $email -Confirm:$false}

Hi Nestori,

 

Tried this but seem it doesn't work, I like this code as it is simple.

      Hi Mark,

       

      Did you got some error message? You need to connect to Exchange Online before running the script (see for example http://o365blog.com/powershell)

      Best Regards,
