| ldapsearch domain=default search="(sAMAccountNAme=%user%)" attrs="memberOf", is the query I am using but I want to filter the results to only include users that are part of a Citrix group, is there a way?

| stats count
| eval user=split("Allice,Bob,Smith,Ken,Cathey,Jeff,Tom,Bekkey",",")
| mvexpand user
| eval count=random() % 2
| eval memberOf=case(count==1,"Citrix",count==0,"notCitrix")
| fields user,memberOf
| where memberOf=="Citrix"

Hi, This is sample query.

| ldapsearch domain=default search="(sAMAccountNAme=%user%)" attrs="sAMAccountNAme,memberOf"
| where memberOf=="Citrix"

How about this? please change Citrix to an appropriate name.
