Can LogicMonitor use Active Directory OU information for grouping?

Hi, We have our servers organized in AD and use those OUs to group similar machines together.  Can I access that information in LM in any way?  I want to make a collection in LM of all the machines...
active directory

Taking a quick peak, there are few existing ones that have "powershell" in the name like addCategory_Veeam_BackupAndReplication_PowerShell. But really you just need to have it output the values and an exit code:

if ($ComputerOU) {
    Write-Output "auto.activedirectory.ou=$ComputerOU"
    exit 0
} else {
    exit 1
}

(Write-Host also works)

Oh.  That's it?  That seems pretty simple.  I can think of a bunch of uses for this.

Thanks.
