Description
The Get-SqlColumnEncryptionKey cmdlet returns a column encryption key object for each column encryption key in the target database.
If the name of the column encryption key is provided, the cmdlet returns one specific column encryption key object.
Examples
Example 1: Get all column encryption keys from a database
PS C:\> Get-SqlColumnEncryptionKey
This command gets all column encryption keys from the database.
Example 2: Get a column encryption key from a specified
PS C:\> Get-SqlColumnEncryptionKey -Name "CEK1"
This command gets a column encryption key from the column encryption key object named 'CEK1'.
Parameters
-AccessToken
The access token used to authenticate to SQL Server, as an alternative to user/password or Windows Authentication.
This can be used, for example, to connect to SQL Azure DB and SQL Azure Managed Instance
using a Service Principal or a Managed Identity.
The parameter to use can be either a string representing the token or a PSAccessToken object as returned by running Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceUrl https://database.windows.net.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.
Parameter properties
| Type: | PSObject |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |
| DontShow: | False |
Parameter sets
(All)
| Position: | Named |
| Mandatory: | False |
| Value from pipeline: | False |
| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-Encrypt
The encryption type to use when connecting to SQL Server.
This value maps to the Encrypt property SqlConnectionEncryptOption on the SqlConnection object of the Microsoft.Data.SqlClient driver.
In v22 of the module, the default is Optional (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be 'Mandatory', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

-HostNameInCertificate
The host name to be used in validating the SQL Server TLS/SSL certificate. You must pass this parameter if your SQL Server instance is enabled for Force Encryption and you want to connect to an instance using hostname/shortname. If this parameter is omitted then passing the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) to -ServerInstance is necessary to connect to a SQL Server instance enabled for Force Encryption.
This parameter is new in v22 of the module.

| Value from pipeline by property name: | False |
| Value from remaining arguments: | False |
-Path
Specifies the path of the SQL database for which this cmdlet runs the operation. If you do not specify a value for this parameter, the cmdlet uses the current working location.
Parameter properties
| Type: | String |
| Default value: | None |
| Supports wildcards: | False |

-TrustServerCertificate
Indicates whether the channel will be encrypted while bypassing walking the certificate chain to validate trust.
In v22 of the module, the default is $true (for compatibility with v21). In v23+ of the module, the default value will be '$false', which may create a breaking change for existing scripts.
