### What is a one sentence summary of your feature request?

Be able to add the “Description” of a group to the group membership reports

### Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.

We need to be able to share group membership reports with department leaders so they can attest to the group membership of the users in their department. It would be helpful if the report could also add the “Description” attribute of the group to minimize any questions those leaders may have around what the group is/why people should be in the group.

### How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?

Field questions around what groups are as they come in.

I asked for this as an enhancement request last year, just to add my voice to the request.

Oh wow OK hopefully it gains some traction! I am trying to come up with something as a work around but probably just have to stick to the group membership reports.

Thanks everyone for your feedback here, surprisingly I didn’t see such a request before, but it makes a lot of sense, we’ll look into it.
