The below script allows you to select a Configuration Manager software update group and then lists the software updates that are assigned to it.

Awesome script.
It is a good reminder that the CM poweshell cmdlets are retrieving objects. The information that I was after (in this case, CI_ID’s of the SU’s in a software update group) is contained in the object retrieved. I was looking at the CMSoftwareUpdate cmdlet previoulsy, but thinking that it would not help me.
