Is there a way to create an Automatic Computer Group using a security group property to target computers?

When creating a new automatic computer group, I want to to target specific computers within an AD Security group. Is this possible, or any other way of accomplishing this?

There are two ways to approach this.

You can make an automatic computer group for each security group using the relevance:

exists names whose (name of it = "MySecurityGroup")of groups of local computer of active directory

Or you can make a property in an analysis called, Active Directory Groups with relevance of names of groups of local computer of active directory and then if you add it as a column in the console when you go to target an action you will find:

I have an analysis on BigFix.Me and on Github that provides a bunch of AD information that you can use as well.

Hi Strawgate,

With the analysis that you have shared i am able to find the details of my AD groups, but when i am creating automatic group by your relevance
exists names whose (name of it = “MySecurityGroup”)of groups of local computer of active directory
i am getting error: 'The operator “name” is not defined.

So i tried a new relevance where i an receiving the result as true or false is this the right relevance?
exists it whose (name of it = “Test Security group”)of groups of local computer of active directory
