Using PowerShell to Check Group or Team Membership

PowerShell is great at getting lots done for Office 365 administrators. As an example, here are a couple of ways to check the membership of an Office 365 Group or a Microsoft Team to find out whether a specific user is already present. You might never need to use this tip, but then again, it's always surprising when PowerShell comes to the rescue.

    Hi Tony, 

    I've seen a few of your wonderful scripts to do with Groups and Teams hence I feel you are the best person to ask this. Is it possible via PowerShell to get a list of Teams and what Groups they have residing in them.

     

    I know that within Microsoft Teams, you can add members to a Team, which can be individuals and Groups. It is those groups that were added that I need to see.  Is this possible?

     

    Thank you in advance,

      ashokjingar I just stumpled upon this thread and registered myself to tell you that theres a module that lets you fetch Office 365 groups that are used for abstracting a membership of af Teams team.

       

      'MicrosoftTeams' |
ForEach-Object -Process {
    if (-not (Get-Module -name $_ -ListAvailable))
    {
        Install-Module -Name $_ -Scope CurrentUser
    }
    Import-Module -Name $_ -ErrorAction Stop
}

$connection = Get-Variable -Name connection -ValueOnly -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
if (-not $connection)
{
    Write-Host -Object "There might be a MS login pop-up window that you havent noticed" -BackgroundColor Yellow -ForegroundColor Black
    $connection = Connect-MicrosoftTeams -ErrorAction Stop
}

#endregion Init

Write-Host -Object 'Fetching all Teams groups'
$team = Get-Team
Write-Host -Object 'Fetching all Teams groupmembers'
$teamUser = $team | Get-TeamUser

      I doubt this because you actually aren’t adding any groups to teams!
      you’re just doing a one time import of the member of those groups. So you’ll probably just see the members being added
