Hi i am using the below syntax to delete an email from 3 user mailboxes with subject Test've Test-abcdef msggg, i have csv file in the below format. i am getting syntax error.
Name
user1@Company portal .com
user2@Company portal .com
user3@Company portal .com
$mailboxes = Import-Csv C:/temp/mailboxes.csv
ForEach ($mailbox in $mailboxes){
New-ComplianceSearch -Name $mailbox.name -ExchangeLocation $mailbox.name -ContentMatchQuery '(Received:08/18/2020 00:00..08/20/2020 23:59) AND (Subject:"Test've Test-abcdef msggg") AND (From:"anon@USER ")'
Start-ComplianceSearch -Identity $mailbox.name
}
New-ComplianceSearch -Name $mailbox.name, is it possible to give any name for compliance search, if i use $mailbox.name will the name of compliancesearch be user1@Company portal .comuser2@Company portal .comuser3@Company portal .com
>Missing closing '}' in statement block
As it said, there missing a "}" for ForEach function.

My csv file is in below format, i have tried modifying the syntax i am getting other errors not sure what is wrong
Name,SearchName
user1@Company portal .com,user1_search
$mailboxes = Import-Csv C:/temp/mailboxes.csv
ForEach ($Mailbox in $Mailboxes){
New-ComplianceSearch -Name $mailbox.SearchName -ExchangeLocation $mailbox.Name -ContentMatchQuery '(Received:08/18/2020 00:00..08/20/2020 23:59) AND (Subject:"Test've Test-abcdef msggg") AND (From:"anon@USER ")'
Start-ComplianceSearch -Identity $mailbox.name
}
I think I have told you about this question many times, the using of "ContentMatchQuery" is incorrect. The way that you used is for search-mailbox rather than New-ComplianceSearch.
If you doesn't know how to use it, you can create it from Office 365 Security & Compliance, then check how to use it from PowerShell:
I want to know why you ask the same question for months and never have a test?
I will try the below syntax and see if it works but i doubt
New-ComplianceSearch -Name "user1_search" -ExchangeLocation user1@Company portal .com -ContentMatchQuery '"Received:08/18/2020 00:00..08/20/2020 23:59" AND from:"anon@USER " AND Subject:"Test've Test-abcdef msggg"'
start-compliancesearch " user1_search "
The way that you used "ContentMatchQuery" is incorrect. The way that you used is for search-mailbox rather than New-ComplianceSearch. So, you will get an error about it.

Hi
Maybe instead of Import-Csv C:/temp/mailboxes.csv, change the / with \ :
Import-Csv "C:\temp\mailboxes.csv"
>is it possible to give any name for compliance search
You need to modify the source file as below:
Then modify this part in that script:
Before running script each time, you also need to modify the SearchName(such as from S1,2,3 to a1,2,3), otherwise, it will still conflict(error like: this Compliance Search name exists)
