Retrieving ObjectIds In An Azure Active Directory Group Using Azure CLI

Using Azure CLI we can retrieve a list of objectIds in a Azure Active Directory group.

Setup

Install the Azure CLI if it’s not already installed.

If you aren’t currently logged in with Azure CLI run:

az login

Retrieving ObjectIds

Now, you’re ready to get the objectIds!

az ad group member list --group "GROUP_NAME_HERE" --query "[].{displayName: displayName, userPrincipalName: userPrincipalName, objectId: objectId}" --output table
DisplayName  UserPrincipalName  ObjectId
-----------  -----------------  ------------------------------------
Test User 1  test1@example.com  00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001
Test User 2  test2@example.com  00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002

If you’re looking for a comma separated value:

az ad group member list --group "GROUP_NAME_HERE" --query "[].objectId | {objectIds: join(',', @)}"
{
  "objectIds": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001,00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000002"
}
