Manage PIM policies in Microsoft Graph PowerShell

The Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) service allows role administrators to make time-bound admin role assignments. Each role has a group of settings that manage it. For example, activation and assignment settings. These role settings are called policies and each policy has a set of rules.

In this how-to guide, you'll list policies, policy assignments and rules, and update policy rules.

Prerequisites

To successfully complete this guide, make sure you have the required prerequisites:

  1. Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK is installed. Follow the Install the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK guide to install the SDK.

  2. To use the Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management, you must have one of the following licenses:

    • Microsoft Entra ID P2
    • Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS) E5 license
  3. Microsoft Graph PowerShell using a Privileged Role Administrator and the appropriate permissions. For this how-to guide, the RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory delegated permission is required. To set the permissions in Microsoft Graph PowerShell, run;

    Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory"
    

    Select Consent on behalf of your organization before accepting in the sign-in dialog box.

Step 1: List policies

A policy is a group of settings that manage a role.

List all policies

To list all policies at directory level, run:

Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicy -Filter "scopeId eq '/' and scopeType eq 'DirectoryRole'"
Id                                                                                      Description   DisplayName   IsOrganizationDefault LastModifiedDateTime ScopeId ScopeType

List details of a specific policy

To get the details of a specific policy, run:

$policyId = "DirectoryRole_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720"

Step 2: Get policy assignments

A policy assignment is the relationship between a role definition and a policy.

Get all policy assignments

To get all the policy assignments, run:

Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyAssignment -Filter "scopeId eq '/' and scopeType eq 'Directory'"
Id                                                                                                                       PolicyId                                                                            RoleDefinitionId                     ScopeId ScopeType

Get a specific policy assignment

To get a specific policy assignment, run:

$assignmentId = "Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720_88d8e3e3-8f55-4a1e-953a-9b9898b8876b"

Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyAssignment -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyAssignmentId $assignmentId | FL
Id                   : Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720_88d8e3e3-8f55-4a1e-953a-9b9898b8876b

ScopeType            : Directory
AdditionalProperties : {[@odata.context, https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#policies/roleManagementPolicyAssignments/$entity]}

Step 3: Get policy rules

Policy rules are the individual role setting details.

Get all rules for a policy

To get all the rules for a policy, run:

$policyId = "Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720"
Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyRule -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyId $policyId | FL
Id                   : Expiration_Admin_Eligibility
Target               : Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Models.MicrosoftGraphUnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleTarget
AdditionalProperties : {[@odata.type, #microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyExpirationRule], [isExpirationRequired, False], [maximumDuration, P365D]}

Id                   : Enablement_Admin_Eligibility
Target               : Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Models.MicrosoftGraphUnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleTarget
AdditionalProperties : {[@odata.type, #microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyEnablementRule], [enabledRules, System.Object[]]}

Note

The output above is truncated for readability.

Get a specific rule for a policy

To get the details of a specific rule for a policy, run:

$policyId = "Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720"

$ruleId = "Expiration_EndUser_Assignment"

Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyRule -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyId $policyId -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleId $ruleId | FL 
Id                   : Expiration_EndUser_Assignment
Target               : Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Models.MicrosoftGraphUnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleTarget
AdditionalProperties : {[@odata.context, https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#policies/roleManagementPolicies('Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720')/rules/$entity], [@odata.type,
                       #microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyExpirationRule], [isExpirationRequired, True], [maximumDuration, PT8H]}

Step 4: Update a policy rule

In this step, we'll update the Expiration_EndUser_Assignment rule.

$policyId = "Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720"

$ruleId = "Expiration_EndUser_Assignment"

$params = @{
"@odata.type" = "#microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyExpirationRule"
Id = "Expiration_EndUser_Assignment"
isExpirationRequired = $false
maximumDuration = "P365D"
Target = @{
  "@odata.type" = "microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleTarget"
  Caller = "EndUser"
  Operations = @(
     "all"
     )
  Level = "Assignment"
  InheritableSettings = @(
  )
  EnforcedSettings = @(
  )
  }
}

Update-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyRule -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyId $policyId -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleId $ruleId -BodyParameter $params

You can check the updated rule by running the following command:

Get-MgPolicyRoleManagementPolicyRule -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyId $policyId -UnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleId $ruleId | FL
Id                   : Expiration_EndUser_Assignment
Target               : Microsoft.Graph.PowerShell.Models.MicrosoftGraphUnifiedRoleManagementPolicyRuleTarget
AdditionalProperties : {[@odata.context, https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#policies/roleManagementPolicies('Directory_f54257c3-0b0f-4dd1-b7d9-8a20d8f57f8b_181f1c72-4d0e-4e3c-902d-ad08d070e720')/rules/$entity], [@odata.type,
                       #microsoft.graph.unifiedRoleManagementPolicyExpirationRule], [isExpirationRequired, False], [maximumDuration, P365D]}
