    Anyone have any idea why I would get this error? This One liner Command Script, works perfectly inside the SCCM Powershell Admin Console. However when i connect in by New-PSDrive i get the error below? 

    Even if i add the identity along with Distinguished name or SID, I still get the error. 

    Any ideas?

    (Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "SCCMDeviceCollectionNameHere").name |ForEach-Object{Add-ADGroupMember "ADDGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_$ }

    Add-ADGroupMember : Cannot find an object with identity: '$' under: 'DC=sub,DC=domain,DC=com'.

    That's good!

    Now try this:

    Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "Intl Home Worker PCI Subnet" | 
    Select -ExpandProperty Name | 
        ForEach-Object{ Add-ADGroupMember "ADDGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_ }

    Rich... I think you might have solved it. I just added an extra " $ " 

    Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE" | 
        Select -ExpandProperty Name | 
            ForEach-Object{ Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "SCCM_Intl_Home_Worker_PCI_Subnet" -Members $_$ }

    It works!!!! No more error. That one little Select piece with Expand property did it! Now I will Automate it by Schedule to know for sure it works. Thanks for helping figure this out!

    Looks like you've got an additional "$" in the "-Members" parameter value. It should be "$_", not "$_$"

    Okay, I tried that before. I will give that another shot and see if it works. What I am doing here is the Device Collection has a list of Computer names in it. I am taking that and sending it to the Security Group. The idea is to automatically update the Security Group without any user interaction. So the names from “ CollectionName “ must be passed to Security Group. Works fine from SCCM powershell but it fails in regular power shell. SCCM is likely passing the parameter because it’s embedded into the Module.

    If you're unsure what's being sent through the pipeline, try running this and see what's there:

    (Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "SCCMDeviceCollectionNameHere").name | ForEach-Object{ $_ }

    When i run that leaving inside the ForEach clause with $_ , there is no output. The problem happens only when it's passed to the AD Security group to add the members in: 

    Add-ADGroupMember "ADDADGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_

    You said this works with SCCM PowerShell?  So if you open the SCCM console, go to the top left, click the little drop down arrow and select Connect via Windows PowerShell ISE, this will output all of the code that you need to import the SCCM module upon running the script.  Just add your bit of code in the appropriate section.

    To install the SCCM PowerShell modules you can simple install the SCCM console, and then run the script from that machine.

    In the end, the only differene between using SCCM PowerShell vs your own is that you have to write the import-module seciton.

    The resource ID wouldnt be the fix here because that is only associated with SCCM not Active Directory. 

    Also the Site Code is not the issue because i am able to connect to the PS-Drive Okay. 

    This strictly relates to passing a parameter to the argument from device collection to AD argument. Active Directory wants to accept it but when it's not launched from SCCM Console Powershell Connect it will not fill the Security Group with the Collection Members. 

    Still havent figured out what's causing this issue or how to fix it.

    Can you get the SCCM collection members without using the SCCM console connect to PowerShell?  Sounds like the answer is yes. 

    Try this

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "xxx"

foreach($device in $devices)
{
	Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "SomeName" -Members $device.Name	
}

    I thought It can be used as a statement, loop or a condition. 

    Ive seen it used multiple ways. I can change it. I just want to get this working so the Device Collection will automatically update the Security Group by command. 

    Ive seen some people struggle with this in Active Directory. Not sure what the cause is of this.

    Yes. I actually did use your code for that error above. What do i have wrong? 

    Your code doesnt throw in error in Powershell ISE but it does not add devices to the Security Group. In SCCM Powershell Window, it gives me an unexpected token error.

    Move the "foreach" to a new line.

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE"
foreach ($device in $devices) { 
    Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "ADGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $device.Name

    Actually I do not see a list of names. With your code below: 

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE" 
foreach ($device in $devices) 
{ 
$device.Name 
}

    There is no output with that above code inside Powershell ISE with Connection Script.

    That means that your Get-CMDevice isn't returning any devices.  check that your CollectionName is correct.

    I just tested my original code and it is fine with exception of it not working in Powershell ISE. The Name still exists. I even tried your code with the Collection ID and it still didnt return any names.

    (Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "SCCMDeviceCollectionNameHere").name |ForEach-Object{Add-ADGroupMember "ADDGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_$ }


    In the VERBOSE output (of your code) I do see that it does show when i select the names from that collection name in the database.

    I didn't expect that it would. That change only fixes your coding problem.

    I think you've already established that the Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE" doesn't return anything.

    Try adding "-Verbose" to that cmdlet's parameters and see if the output from that sheds any light on your situation.

    That does display all of the members in my collection and it shows the WQL query. below:

    VERBOSE: Finish: Execution of WQL query: SELECT * FROM SMS_CM_RES_COLL_BW1001FD. Processed 11 results in
    00:00:01.7870961.

    So, is it possible that the objects simply have no member called "name"?

    What's the class of an item returned from the query? What are the property names in an item?

    This should get you the data needed to answer those two questions.

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE"
$devices[0].GetType()
$devices[0]|gm
    Maybe "name" should be "MS-SMS-MP-Name"? That's just a wild guess based on the schema exensions from config manager.

    Try this and see if you get an array of names:

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE" | Select -ExpandProperty Name

    The "Name" property isn't a simple string. It looks to be a Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider.IResultObject object.

    I don't have a SCCM to work with, so I'm not sure I can be of much more help.

    I can try to help, I use SCCM daily.  The output of the Get-CMDevice returns objects that have a Name property, at least in two of my environment.

    I just ran the following code and it listed all device names in a collection.  Here is what I did

    1. Opened SCCM console

    2. In the console in the top left corner, select the drop down and select "Connect Via Windows PowerShell ISE"

    3. In the PowerShell ISE that opened, at the end of the code that is auto generated, I entered the following

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "All Systems"

foreach($device in $devices)
{
    $device.Name
}

    I hit F5 and I get a list of names in the All Systems collection.

    I hit F5 and I get a list of names in the All Systems collection.  

    My issue isnt inside SCCM console or SCCM console ISE. It's from the regular powershell prompt. Also we know that it is reading from SCCM, because i am getting the names listed in the errors. So it is reading the device collection just like a list.

    stay with me, in that same code, where you get a list of devices, make it look like below

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "All Systems"

foreach($device in $devices)
{
    Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "ADGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $device.Name
}

    If the above doesn't work, the issue must be with the data types, does -Members look for a string?  $device.Name is a string...

    I would run the Add-AdGroupMember cmdlet in the same powershell session and manually enter the data and see if that works.

    That's good!

    Now try this:

    Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "Intl Home Worker PCI Subnet" | 
    Select -ExpandProperty Name | 
        ForEach-Object{ Add-ADGroupMember "ADDGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_ }

    stay with me, in that same code, where you get a list of devices, make it look like below

    $devices = Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "All Systems"

foreach($device in $devices)
{
    Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "ADGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $device.Name
}

    If the above doesn't work, the issue must be with the data types, does -Members look for a string?  $device.Name is a string...

    I would run the Add-AdGroupMember cmdlet in the same powershell session and manually enter the data and see if that works.

    Tested Command ADD-ADGroupMember in same window and it works fine. Also works fine in the Powershell ISE and Regular Powershell windows. 

    I believe you are right on the datatypes. It's having trouble tying the strings together or it could be that the property for " Name " needs to specified for SCCM and then for Active Directory. Not sure how i would do that. But that is something i have explored. 

    OR 

    Else If I could write a script to automatically open the SCCM console powershell window and automatically execute the script that would work too. 

    I figure I will eventually have to figure this issue out. I need to be able work with both SCCM and Active Directory.

    That's good!

    Now try this:

    Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "Intl Home Worker PCI Subnet" | 
    Select -ExpandProperty Name | 
        ForEach-Object{ Add-ADGroupMember "ADDGROUPNAMEHERE" -Members $_ }

    Rich... I think you might have solved it. I just added an extra " $ " 

    Get-CMDevice -CollectionName "DEVICECOLLECTIONNAMEHERE" | 
        Select -ExpandProperty Name | 
            ForEach-Object{ Add-ADGroupMember -Identity "SCCM_Intl_Home_Worker_PCI_Subnet" -Members $_$ }

    It works!!!! No more error. That one little Select piece with Expand property did it! Now I will Automate it by Schedule to know for sure it works. Thanks for helping figure this out!

    Glad you got it to work, I'm not entirely sure about the $_$ thing, but if it works :)

    I don't know if there's another property in the object returned by Get-CMDevice that holds the samAccountName of the computer. The "name" property looks to be only the CN property of the computer object, and the Add-ADGroupMember want the samAccountName.

    The CN property of a computer object doesn't have the trailing "$", but the samAccountName (being the NetBIOS name of the computer) does. The NetBIOS name must be unique within the AD, but the CN only has to be unique within the organizational unit.

    You might want to look around and see if there is another property with the samAccountName in it. There are a couple that might fit the bill: PSComputerName, and UserName
