@Russ Rimmerman, thank you so much, Sir. I tried this one out and ended up using the displayName filter that starts with a specific word. So far, I am getting what I need on my project. Again, thank you for the quick response.

Hi @Russ Rimmerman is there a way that I can filter out the list of applications pulled with the "scheme" is qual to "serviceprincipal" only? So I can get the list of expiring secrets and certificates to applications that I manage only?Thanks
