This cmdlet is available only in the cloud-based service.

Use the Set-ServicePrincipal cmdlet to change service principals in your cloud-based organization.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Syntax

Set-ServicePrincipal
   [-Identity] <ServicePrincipalIdParameter>
   [-Confirm]
   [-DisplayName <String>]
   [-WhatIf]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

You can use this cmdlet to change the DisplayName only. If AppId/ObjectId is wrong, delete the service principal and create a new one.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Set-ServicePrincipal -Identity dc873ad4-0397-4d74-b5c0-897cd3a94731 -DisplayName "Another App Name"

This example sets the service principal in Exchange Online with the specified display name.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
