    Trying to pull all AD groups and their category in our OU. Do you know which switch to use the below is not working for me

    get-adgroup -filter * -SearchBase "OU=OurDC,DC=ourDC,DC=local" | GroupType | Select Name | export-csv -notypeinformation C:\Users\test.csv

    GroupType is not recognized. What should I use?

    Try:

    Get-ADGroup -filter * -SearchBase "OU=,DC=,DC=local" | Select Name, GroupCategory, GroupScope | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation C:\Users\Desktop\ADGroupt.csv

    I meant to say no need to use -Properties, as GroupCategory and GroupScope are default properties, but they must be in the Select or they are not output.

    GroupType is an AD attribute, not a PowerShell property, so it is not retrieved by default. You can specify groupType with the -Properties parameter, but you get an integer that needs to be evaluated. Best to Select the properties GroupCategory and GroupScope. These are both default properties, so no need to use -Properties to retrieve them. Just list in the Select.

    Each element in a pipeline must be a CmdLet that can take pipeline input.

    get-adgroup -filter * -SearchBase "OU=OurDC,DC=ourDC,DC=local" | Select Name, GroupType
