# Validate a dynamic group mambership rule (preview) in Azure Active Directory
20+
21+
Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) now provides the means to validate dynamic group rules (in public preview). On the **Validate rules** tab, you can validate your dynamic rule against sample group members to confirm the rule is working as expected. When creating or updating dynamic group rules, administrators want to know whether a user or a device will be a member of the group. This helps evaluate whether user or device meets the rule criteria and aid in troubleshooting when membership is not expected.
22+
23+
## Step-by-step walk-through
24+
25+
To get started, access Azure Active Directory from this URL: https://aka.ms/ValidateRules and sign in with your credentials. Then go to Azure Active Directory / Groups. Pick an existing dynamic group or create a new dynamic group and click on Dynamic membership rules. You can then see the Validate Rules Preview tab.
26+
27+
On **Validate rules** tab, you can select users to validate their memberships. 20 users or devices can be selected at one time.
28+
29+
After choosing the users or devices from the picker, and **Select**, validation will automatically start and validation results will appear.
30+
31+
The results tell whether a user is a member of the group or not. If the rule is not valid or there is a network issue, the result will show as **Unknown**. In case of **Unknown**, the detailed error message will describe the issue and actions needed.
32+
33+
You can modify the rule and validation of memberships will be triggered. To see why user is not a member of the group, click on "View details" and verification details will show the result of each expression composing the rule. Click **OK** to exit.
