Deleted user still showing up in room Calendar user list PowerShell

Ahasub Chowdhury 16

Hi all,

We are using PowerShell to provide room calendar permission to the users which is more efficient as opposed to GUI because it doesn't give you access to the mailbox just the calendar.

As a part of our exit process usually delete user account from AD when they leave the organisation. I recently noticed that the users who are deleted from AD are still showing up when I check room calendar permission using Get-MailboxFolderPermission room:\calendar. If I try to remove them using Remove-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet it gives me the following error.

I would appreciate your suggestions on this. Thank you so much.

Kind regards,

Ahasub

Hi Joyceschen,

Thank you for your suggestion. Sorry for the late response. I have tried it but it doesn't work. We have a hybrid setup. When the user was deleted from AD, it was gone from O365 so remove MSOLUser throws user not found error. Same way for the recycle bin.

For Remove-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet I tried with username instead of SID since I don't have the SID.

Here is what I tried to get the SID but it didn't return anything. Any suggestions?

get-adobject -Filter ‘isdeleted -eq $true -and name -ne “Deleted Objects” -and samaccountname -like “Username here”’ -IncludeDeletedObjects -Properties samaccountname,displayname,objectsid

Hi Joyceschen,

Good news. If I use the users' display name it works yay! :) Even though until yesterday it didn't work!
Thank you for your help.

Cheers!

What's the result if you use Get-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity qaz@Company portal .com:\Calendar -User exuser1? If you can use this command get result, you could try running this.

Get-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity ******@contoso.com:\Calendar -User exuser1 | Remove-MailboxFolderPermission
