Easy way to export group list from AD?

Bokeh

I have a sales manager who wants a list from two active email groups - sales and off premise sales. There's 50 or more in each group, and I need to get them in a csv file for him. Is there an easy way to export those on the email lists?

Will this solution work?

Or this:

Can I use CSVDE to export the users in a specific group from AD?

Or else there will be a one liner in PowerSHell to do it:

assuming you'll need to use powershell, something like this to export users from a group.

Get-ADGroupMember -identity “Name Of Your Group” -recursive | get-aduser -Properties mail |select name,samaccountname,mail |export-csv -path c:\groupmembers.csv -NoTypeInformation

This is your best and quickest way. You could get really fancy and create a hashtable and do your get-adgroup for each Group you list. But you only have two groups so it would only be a learning exercise.

Sorry, a bit of a hijack, but is this the type of question you could expect in an exam?

Possibly but you would more likely see something more like.

You run a Server 2012 forest with Server 2012 domain controllers. The Sales department needs a listing of all users assigned to the GSales group. How would you accomplish the task requiring the least administrative effort?

A. Get-ADGroupMember
B. Get-ADUser
C. dsget group
D. Export the Group Policy
