powershell accessing a value by property name instead of index

Question

ITs been my 2nd day on powershell scripts.

I have a powershell script as below;

Search-AdminAuditLog -Cmdlets add-rolegroupmember,remove-rolegroupmember -StartDate $startDate -EndDate $endDate -Parameters member |
where { $_.objectmodified -like '*'+$RoleGroupName} |
select 'objectmodified','Caller','Rundate','cmdletname',@{Name='Username';Expression={$***_.cmdletparameters.Value[1]***}}

How do I access the value of the expression _.cmdletparameters.Value[1] something like _.cmdletparameters.Value['Name'] instead of the index

You can run the scriptblock in your impromptu hashtable through a Where statement like most anything else. Try something like this:

@{l='Username';e={$_.cmdletparameters|?{$_.Name -like "UserID"}|select -expandproperty Value}}
