<li
    class="list-group-item"
    *ngFor="let user of users.filter((x: any) => x.status.toLowerCase().startsWith('active')); let i = index">
    <div *ngIf="user.status == 'active'">
    {{ user.name }} | <a href="#" (click)="onSetToInactive(i)">Set to Inactive</a>
    </div>
  </li>

Users is defined as

users: {name: string, status: string}[] = [];

The error I get is

error NG5002: Parser Error: Unexpected token =, expected identifier, keyword, or string at column 35 in [let user of u
sers.filter((x: any) => x.status.toLowerCase().startsWith('active')); 

UPDATE--------------

<ul class="list-group">
  <li
    class="list-group-item"
    *ngFor="let user of users; let i = index">
    <ng-container *ngIf="user.status == 'active'">
    {{ user.name }} | <a href="#" (click)="onSetToInactive(i)">Set to Inactive</a>
    </ng-container>
  </li>
</ul>

It renders empty cells if I 'move' the users from active to inactive
