Reference

Module:: ExchangePowerShell

Applies to:: Exchange Server 2010, Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Online, Exchange Online Protection

This cmdlet is available in on-premises Exchange and in the cloud-based service. Some parameters and settings may be exclusive to one environment or the other.

Use the Remove-ManagementRoleEntry cmdlet to remove existing management role entries.

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

Syntax

Remove-ManagementRoleEntry
      [-Identity] <RoleEntryIdParameter>
      [-Confirm]
      [-DomainController <Fqdn>]
      [-Force]
      [-WhatIf]
      [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Remove-ManagementRoleEntry cmdlet removes existing role entries. However, you can't remove role entries from built-in management roles.

For more information about management role entries, see Understanding management roles.

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

Remove-ManagementRoleEntry "Tier 1 Help Desk\New-Mailbox"

This example removes the New-Mailbox role entry from the Tier 1 Help Desk role.

Example 2

Get-ManagementRoleEntry "Tier 1 Help Desk\*" | where {$_.Name -like 'New-*'} | foreach {Remove-ManagementRoleEntry -Identity "$($_.id)\$($_.name)"}

This example removes all the role entries that have the verb New on the Tier 1 Help Desk role by piping the output of the Get-ManagementRoleEntry cmdlet to the Where-Object cmdlet which specifies the verb filter, and then these results are piped to the Remove-ManagementRoleEntry cmdlet.

This example forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding (we didn't use -Confirm:$false or -Force).

Note: Exchange Online PowerShell requires the complex syntax as described, and the same command also works in the Exchange Management Shell in on-premises Exchange servers. The Exchange Management Shell supports much simpler syntax for the same result, but the command doesn't work in Exchange Online PowerShell: Get-ManagementRoleEntry "Tier 1 Help Desk\New-* | Remove-ManagementRoleEntry.

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.

-DomainController

This parameter is available only in on-premises Exchange.

The DomainController parameter specifies the domain controller that's used by this cmdlet to read data from or write data to Active Directory. You identify the domain controller by its fully qualified domain name (FQDN). For example, dc01.contoso.com.

The Force switch hides warning or confirmation messages. You don't need to specify a value with this switch.

You can use this switch to run tasks programmatically where prompting for administrative input is inappropriate.

Default value:	None
Required:	False
Accept pipeline input:	False
Accept wildcard characters:	False
Applies to:	Exchange Online, Exchange Online Protection

-Identity

The Identity parameter specifies the role entry that you want to remove. This parameter uses the syntax: <management role>\<role entry name> (for example, CustomRole\Set-Mailbox).

For more information about how management role entries work, see Understanding management roles.

If the role entry name contains spaces, enclose the name in quotation marks (").
