I need to create a single field named MemberOf from the XML snippet below.  It should look like this:

memberOf

CN=Buttercup,OU=SAP Service Accounts and Groups,OU=Service Accounts,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Corp-Hypr,OU=Hypr,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Everyone - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Contractors – Buttercup- Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Contractors – US – Buttercup- Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=ButtercupLocation - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Everyone - M to Q - Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=O365-Buttercup,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Contractors - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

CN=Buttercup-MNOPQ,OU=CIT-WS,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com

 

 

 

 

<entry key="memberOf">
                            <value>
                              <Map>
                                <entry key="CN=Buttercup Location - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=buttercup,DC=com"/>

                                <entry key="CN=Everyone - Buttercup - Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com"/>
                                <entry key="CN=O365-Buttercup2,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com"/>

Maybe this run-anywhere example will get you started.

| makeresults 
| eval _raw="<entry key=\"memberOf\">
<value>
  <Map>
    <entry key=\"CN=Buttercup Location - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Contractors - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Contractors – Buttercup - Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Contractors – US – Buttercup - Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Corp-Hypr,OU=Hypr,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Everyone - Group,OU=SharePoint,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Everyone - Buttercup - Group,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=O365-Buttercup2,OU=MIM Created Groups,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Buttercup ,OU=SAP Service Accounts and Groups,OU=Service Accounts,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
    <entry key=\"CN=Buttercup-MNOPQ,OU=CIT-WS,OU=Groups,DC=corp,DC=Buttercup,DC=com\"/>
 </Map>
</value>
</entry>" 
``` Above is demo data.  Delete IRL.  ```
| spath output=Map path=entry.value.Map
| spath input=Map output=values path=entry{@key}
| eval key="memberOf"
