New-TeamsProtectionPolicyRule

This cmdlet is available only in the cloud-based service.

Use the New-TeamsProtectionPolicyRule cmdlet to create Microsoft Teams protection policy rules.

Note: If the rule already exists (the Get-TeamsProtectionPolicyRule cmdlet returns output), you can't use this cmdlet.

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

Description

You can use this cmdlet only if the following statements are true:

  • The Teams protection policy rule doesn't exist (the Get-TeamsProtectionPolicyRule cmdlet returns no output).
  • The Teams protection policy exists (the Get-TeamsProtectionPolicy cmdlet returns output).

Important

Different types of recipient exceptions use OR logic (the recipient must satisfy any of the specified exceptions). For more information, see Configure ZAP for Teams protection in Defender for Office 365 Plan 2.

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

New-TeamsProtectionPolicyRule -Name "Teams Protection Policy Rule" -TeamsProtectionPolicy "Teams Protection Policy" -ExceptIfSentToMemberOf research@contoso.onmicrosoft.com

This example creates the Teams protection policy rule with members of the group named Research excluded from ZAP for Teams protection.

Parameters

-Comments

The Comments parameter specifies informative comments for the rule, such as what the rule is used for or how it has changed over time. The length of the comment can't exceed 1024 characters.

Type:String
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False
Applies to:Exchange Online

-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.
