Hello Victor,
You could use the URM methods getGroupUsers() or findUserGroups() and then based on current user filter as needed etc.

Hi Skb_ev
See solution below on how to filter a list-view in sharepoint- site based on an active-directory membership.
Step1:
Go to "SmartObject Service Tester.exe" Path(C:Program FilesK2Bin) and create a SmartObject via "AD Service 2"
Follow the steps : C:Program FilesK2Bin> Double click "SmartObject Service Tester.exe">Click (+) "ServiceObject Explorer" to collapse>Click (+) "AD Service 2" to Collapse>Right Click AD User>Click "Create SmartObject">Rename "AD User" to "AD User 2">Click "Publish SmartObject"
Step2:
Expand (+)"SmartObject Explorer">Expand (+) "All SmartObjects">Check if SmartObject "AD User 2" is created
Step3:
From SharePoint side we are going to create a Custom List
Step4:
Create a SmartObject and a List View e.g
Step5:
Go to View drag and drop "Data Label" name it "myData Label" and go to Rules e.g
Step6:
The Rule must be like this (Each line will be explained in the next steps)
Step7:
then on AD User2 SmartObject, execute its GetUserByGroups method (configure)
=>Click Configure>Type the Group that you want to get user from e.g Finance
=>Checking If the Field name is equal to System Name.
=> if they are equal it must display the displayname on the list view where we dragged "Data Label" for the person who login
Step8:
=>If myData Label contains a value
=>then execute the Get List Items method Configure (Configuration not necessary)
=>If myData Label does not contain a Value
=>then execute "Get List items" Method Configure
Click configure>Go to Filter>on Field choose Colleague> Operator choose equal sign> Value drag System Value.
Click Finish>Ok> Finish

Dear Elvis
Thank you very much for the detailed solution. It works exactly as needed!
Because it may be difficult to understand for all other users: The "magic" is in step 7 and 8.
The trick is to use the AD-Smart Object method "GetUsersByGroups" and filter by the "current user". With this "trick" you get to know if the current user is in a given AD-Group.
- If the result ist empty the user is not a member of the given ad-group
- If the result is not empty the user is a member of a given AD-group
Based on this "boolean"-like result one can change the filter. Here in this example the result has been written to a data-label. But one can also use a parameter (which will be my "version").
