Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy

This cmdlet is available only in the Exchange Online PowerShell module v3.2.0 or later. For more information, see About the Exchange Online PowerShell module.

Use the Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy cmdlet to update an access policy for a feature in a Viva module. Note that:

  • You can't update a policy for a particular user or group to include the entire tenant if a policy for the entire tenant already exists for the feature. Only one tenant-wide policy is supported.
  • Policies assigned to a specific user or group take priority over the policy assigned to the entire tenant when determining whether a feature is enabled. If a user has multiple policies assigned for a feature (directly as a user or member of a group), the most restrictive policy applies.

Some features include the option for user controls (user opt out). Refer to the feature documentation to see if user controls are available for the feature that you intend to set a policy for.

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

Description

Use the Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy cmdlet to update an access policy for a feature in a Viva module.

This cmdlet updates the attributes of the policy that you specify. These attributes include:

  • The policy name (Name parameter).
  • Whether or not the policy enables the feature (IsFeatureEnabled parameter).
  • Whether or not the policy enables user controls (IsUserControlEnabled parameter).
  • Who the policy applies to (the UserIds and GroupIds parameters or the Everyone parameter).

You can update these attributes independently of each other. For example, if you specify the Name parameter but not the IsFeatureEnabled parameter, the name of the policy is updated but whether or not the policy enables the feature remains unchanged.

Important: Values that you specify for the UserIds and/or GroupIds parameters or the Everyone parameter overwrite any existing users or groups. To preserve the existing users and groups, you need to specify those existing users or groups and any additional users or groups that you want to add. Not including existing users or groups in the command effectively removes those specific users or groups from the policy. For more information, see the examples.

You need to use the Connect-ExchangeOnline cmdlet to authenticate.

This cmdlet requires the .NET Framework 4.7.2 or later.

Currently, you need to be a member of the Global administrators role to run this cmdlet.

To learn more about administrator role permissions in Microsoft Entra ID, see Role template IDs.

Examples

Example 1

Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy -ModuleId VivaInsights -FeatureId Reflection -PolicyId 3db38dfa-02a3-4039-b33a-42b0b3da029b1 -Name NewPolicyName -IsFeatureEnabled $false

This example updates the name of the specified policy and makes it so the policy does not enable the feature.

Example 2

Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy -ModuleId VivaInsights -FeatureId Reflection -PolicyId 3db38dfa-02a3-4039-b33a-42b0b3da029b -GroupIds group1@contoso.com,group2@contoso.com

This example updates who the specified policy applies to. The policy now applies only to the specified groups, overwriting the users and groups the policy used to apply to.

Example 3

Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy -ModuleId VivaInsights -FeatureId Reflection -PolicyId 3db38dfa-02a3-4039-b33a-42b0b3da029b -UserIds user1@contoso.com,user2@contoso.com

This example updates who the specified policy applies to. The policy now applies only to the specified users, overwriting the users and groups the policy used to apply to.

Example 4

Update-VivaModuleFeaturePolicy -ModuleId VivaInsights -FeatureId Reflection -PolicyId 3db38dfa-02a3-4039-b33a-42b0b3da029b -Name NewPolicyName -IsFeatureEnabled $true -GroupIds group1@contoso.com -UserIds user1@contoso.com

This example updates the name of the specified policy, makes it so the policy enables the feature, and updates who the policy applies to. The policy now applies only to the specified users and groups, overwriting the users and groups the policy used to apply to.

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.

-Everyone

The Everyone parameter specifies that the updated policy applies to all users in the organization. Valid values are:

  • $true: The policy applies to all users. This is the only useful value for this parameter.
  • $false: Don't use this value.

If you don't want to update who the policy applies to, don't use this parameter.

Don't use this parameter with the GroupIds or UserIds parameters.

-FeatureId

The FeatureId parameter specifies the feature in the Viva module of the policy that you want to update.

To view details about the features in a Viva module that support feature access controls, use the Get-VivaModuleFeature cmdlet. The FeatureId value is returned in the output of the cmdlet.

Type:String

-GroupIds

The GroupIds parameter specifies the email addresses of groups that the updated policy applies to. Mail-enabled Microsoft Entra groups are supported. You can enter multiple values separated by commas.

If you don't want to update who the policy applies to, don't use this parameter.

The values that you specify for this parameter or the UserIds parameter replace any existing groups. To preserve the existing groups, include them along with any new users or groups that you specify.

You can specify a maximum of 20 total users or groups (20 users and no groups, 10 users and 10 groups, etc.).

To have the updated policy apply to all users in the organization, use the Everyone parameter with the value $true.

-IsFeatureEnabled

The IsFeatureEnabled parameter specifies whether the feature is enabled by the updated policy. Valid values are:

-IsUserControlEnabled

Note: This parameter is available in version 3.3.0 or later of the module. If the feature supports user controls for opting out, make sure you set the IsUserControlEnabled parameter when you create the policy. Otherwise, user controls for the policy use the default state for the feature.

The IsUserControlEnabled parameter specifies whether user control is enabled by the policy. Valid values are:

  • $true: User control is enabled by the policy. Users can opt out of the feature.
  • $false: User control isn't enabled by the policy. Users can't opt of the feature.

Only features that allow admins to enable and disable user controls by policy can use this parameter. If the feature doesn't support admins toggling user controls, the default value applies. See the feature documentation for more information.

If you don't want to update whether the user control is enabled by the policy, don't use this parameter.
